During a meeting with the Senate Standing Committee on Housing and Works happened at Parliament House, this news was shared. Mir Kabeer Shahi chaired this meeting. The National Party senator from Baluchistan province has complained that the government failed in providing complete detail regarding Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme.
