Severe Sewage and Sanitation Crisis in Naz Town, Lahore

Naz Town in Lahore is experiencing a severe public health emergency characterized by widespread sewage overflow, collapsed sewerage lines, and uncollected garbage. Residents report lack of clean water and basic sanitation, with children and women falling ill, mosques rendered non-functional, and neighborhoods described as 'drowning in sewage water'. Public protests and urgent appeals to provincial and local authorities have intensified, prompting significant media coverage and demands for immediate remedial action by the Punjab government and Lahore Development Authority.

Ongoing Real Estate Activity Amid Infrastructure Crisis

Despite the acute civic crisis, commercial real estate activity continues in Naz Town, with multiple listings for 3 Marla, 5 Marla, and 6 Marla commercial plots actively advertised on major property platforms. Listings emphasize features like 'carpet roads', 'sewerage', and 'bijli paani' (electricity and water), raising questions about the accuracy of such claims given the documented infrastructure collapse. These listings reflect persistent market interest but also highlight a stark disconnect between promotional narratives and ground realities.

Naz Town Confirmed as LDA-Approved Housing Society

Naz Town is officially listed as an LDA-approved housing society, established on 02-10-1986 in Sadhoke, covering an area of 600 Kanals. It is categorized as a private developer scheme and is cited in industry guides as one of the more affordable LDA-approved options in Lahore, with average plot prices ranging from PKR 2–5 Lac per Marla — making it a budget-accessible choice despite its current infrastructural challenges.
