      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330402680/maryam-nawaz-announces-free-plots-for-homeless</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has announced a groundbreaking initiative to provide free 3-marla plots to needy and homeless individuals in the province.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Under the first phase of this project, 1,892 plots will be distributed across 22 districts through 33 different schemes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="breakdown-of-plot-distribution-in-the-first-phase" href="#breakdown-of-plot-distribution-in-the-first-phase" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Breakdown of plot distribution in the first phase&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the government’s plan:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Rawalpindi Division: 658 plots in 5 schemes across 4 districts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Faisalabad Division: 288 plots in 4 schemes across 5 districts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Lahore Region: 518 plots in 5 schemes across 3 districts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Bhakkar Region: 131 plots in 7 schemes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Multan Region: 270 plots in 9 schemes across 5 districts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•	Bahawalpur Region: 27 plots in 3 schemes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="maryam-nawazs-vision" href="#maryam-nawazs-vision" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Maryam Nawaz’s vision&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CM Maryam Nawaz has ordered immediate implementation of the scheme, emphasising that her dream is for every citizen of Punjab to have a home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She stated that providing land to underprivileged individuals is not an act of charity but the government fulfilling its responsibility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This initiative could be a significant relief for Punjab’s homeless population, offering them a chance to secure a permanent roof over their heads.&lt;/p&gt;
