New Plot Allotment Scheme Introduced for Punjab’s Bureaucracy
The Punjab government has launched a new plot allotment scheme for civil service, Provincial Management Service (PMS), and police officers. Plots of two kanals, one kanal, and 10 marlas will be available near Kala Khatai Road Interchange. The scheme allocates 30% of the plots to Pakistan Administrative Services and PMS officers, 10% to police officers, and 30% to X-cadre employees.
Plots are priced at Rs 800,000 per marla, with payment options spread over eight years. Officers in grades 21-22 are eligible for two-kanal plots. The Planning and Development (P&D) department has released an official letter and application form for this scheme.
Earlier this month, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz announced 1,224 free flats for workers in Taxila and Sunder labor colonies. In a recent meeting, she reviewed the Labor Department’s performance and discussed projects like scholarships for workers, new labor colonies, and healthcare programs. She emphasized these efforts and announced Rs 6 billion for overdue death and marriage grants to over 29,000 workers. Approval was also given to build two hostels for women workers in Garment City, Sheikhupura, providing accommodation for 704 women.
