The minister said that during the Cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Imran Khan also gave directions to get vacated the government residences and hostels vacated from the occupants which are not entitled to it.

Fawad Chaudhry told that the prime minister also sought report from the Capital Development Authority (CDA) as to what steps have been taken to make buildings in the Federal Capital such as hospitals, schools and commercial buildings accessible to the handicapped persons.
