July 29, 2026 (MLN): The Balochistan government is set to equip 8,000 reconstructed permanent houses in Awaran district with solar power systems, completing a housing project whose cost has been revised upward from Rs2.5bn to roughly Rs2.825bn, an increase of about 13%.

The housing scheme is being financed by the Saudi Fund for Development (SFD), APP reported.

The construction of all 8,000 houses has already been completed, while procurement and installation of the solar systems is still at the approval stage, pending clearance from the SFD.

Once the solarisation component is cleared and rolled out, it will mark the final phase of the project, extending solar power to every rebuilt house in the district.
