ISLAMABAD, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 20th Jun, 2026) Federal Government Employees Housing Authority (FGEHA) has initiated practical measures to transform Sectors F-14 and F-15 into one of Pakistan's most modern, aesthetically appealing, and environmentally sustainable residential developments.

In pursuance of the special directives of the Secretary, Ministry of Housing & Works, Captain (Retd.) Muhammad Mahmood, and the Director General, FGEHA, Captain (Retd.) Zafar Iqbal, the Authority's technical team has accelerated work on a comprehensive horticulture, landscaping, and environmental enhancement plan.

In this regard, renowned horticulture expert and Advisor to the Capital Development Authority (CDA), Dr Pervez Ahsan Khan, participated in a detailed meeting with FGEHA engineers and the technical team. Following the meeting, he conducted an extensive site visit to Sectors F-14 and F-15, where he reviewed various sites and provided valuable technical recommendations for developing world-class landscaping, plantation, and recreational facilities while preserving the area's natural environment.

During the visit, a detailed assessment of different locations was carried out, and it was decided that modern horticulture, environmentally friendly infrastructure, and the promotion of natural beauty would be given top priority to establish a unique identity for Sectors F-14 and F-15, distinguishing them from conventional housing schemes.

Under the proposed plan, modern check dams will be constructed to conserve rainwater and enhance groundwater recharge. In addition, large-scale nurseries will be established to cultivate thousands of varieties of plants and trees, ensuring that the entire development becomes lush, green, and environmentally sustainable.

To provide residents with healthy and high-quality recreational facilities, the project will also include modern cycling tracks, pedestrian walkways, scenic viewpoints, regulation points, comfortable seating areas, boating points, and suspension bridges harmoniously integrated with the natural landscape.
