DHA Valley | A Never Ending Nightmare

Описание: In this episode of Paish Raft, hosts Sultan Mahmood and Muhammad Ishfaq dive deep into the story of DHA Valley, once promised as an affordable housing project for the middle and lower-middle-class families of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Launched in 2008 as a joint venture between DHA, Bahria Town, and Habib Rafiq Limited, the project raised high hopes but soon got entangled in controversies.

From the Daddhocha Dam dispute that halted its progress, to NAB’s inquiries and even assurances from former Army Chief Gen. Raheel Sharif, DHA Valley has remained stuck in uncertainty. Muhammad Ishfaq explains how compensation offers in the form of Bahria plots and repeated rebrandings—DHA 6, DHA 7, DHA Marina—failed to deliver real housing. The episode also explores how rampant file trading speculation turned a noble housing initiative into a chaotic marketplace, where greed overshadowed the dream of home ownership.

Join us as we uncover the rise, fall, and continuing struggles of DHA Valley—a story of promises unfulfilled, misplaced trust, and the harsh realities of Pakistan’s housing sector.
