Pakistan needs more affordable houses. Not everyone in Pakistan has enough money to buy their own home. Houses are important because they can help people stay safe and not be homeless.

In some countries, they have been able to get rid of homelessness by doing certain things. For example, they did this in Finland. In the country, everyone has the right to a house. 

This includes people struggling with drugs and alcohol addiction. When they give them a home to live in, they do not have any reason to struggle with the problem anymore.

Many citizens in Finland started to contribute to society. They did this by treating people the same, no matter their social level or country. Their approach was successful because it helped people get affordable housing. Many people in Pakistan don't have homes and still struggle with homelessness.

The government of Pakistan wants to give more houses to people who can't afford them. The new house program is a good way for the people who need houses.
