The Governing Body of Lahore Development Authority (LDA), while taking serious notice of the peoples sufferings due to incomplete housing schemes for the last many years has decided to constitute a committee headed by DCO Lahore Muhammad Ijaz, which would examine every scheme with regard to provision of basic amenities.

Muhammad Younas, Mian Javed Ali and Khalid Javed Ghurki and Managing Directors of Water and Sewerage Authority (Wasa), TEPA and representatives of Housing, Planning, Finance and Local Government Departments attended the meeting.
The meeting gave its approval for setting up of two housing schemes over an area of 25,000 Kanals on Raiwind Road and 50,000 Kanals on Ferozepur Road for which overseas Pakistani and resident citizens would be eligible to apply for the allotment of plots.
The housing scheme on Raiwind Road would be set up on east of the road, which would touch Kahana Nuo Road on north, Kot Jamalpur Road on south, and railway line on east and Raiwind Road on the west. The other scheme on Ferozepur Road would touch Huddyara drain on north, Ferozepur Road on east, railway line on west and Soai Asal Road on south.

Both the schemes would have plots measuring 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 Marlas, while provision for educational, recreational and business facilities would also be ensured in the schemes. The plots, according to the decision of the meeting, would be allotted through draw.
