Kashmir Model Town (KMT) – Chakri Road

Overview

Kashmir Model Town (KMT)—also called Kashmir Housing Society, Kashmir Town Islamabad, or KMT Chakri Road Rawalpindi—is the first housing project of Jammu and Kashmir Cooperative Housing Society Ltd (JKCHS).

Launched in the early 1980s, it spans over 3,700 Kanals of land, fully owned by the society. The society granted NOC before 1990, and both the Layout Plan (LOP) and NOC are approved by the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA).

Located on Main Chakri Road, it sits right next to Al-Haram City and only 19 KM from Islamabad’s GPO. You can easily access Islamabad International Airport, the M-1 Motorway, and the Chakri Interchange.

A common question I get is How many blocks or phases are in KMT?

It consists of three phases: Phase I, II, and III. Phases I and II were developed.

Over the years, however, the town’s infrastructure has declined. Although development work was completed 20 years ago, many allottees did not construct homes, leading to worn-down roads and utilities. Nevertheless, Kashmir Model Town has strong foundations and holds the potential to thrive once again with renewed development and care.

KMT is located on Main Chakri Road in Rawalpindi next to Al-Haram City (a popular housing project). It is about 19 KM away from the GPO, Islamabad.

Possession and NOC Status

Possessions of the plot are given to the allottees. Security arrangements have been made.

With that, a model house has been constructed in the Scheme, encouraging members to build homes.

The Layout Plan was approved, and NOC was obtained by the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA). However, as per online RDA portal records, KMT does not show on the list of approved projects.

Contact No

A question I most often get is:

What is the contact number of the Jammu Kashmir Cooperative Housing Society?

The contact number of JKCHS is 051-2304701 (society number)

Development Status (As of 2025)

Initial development in Phases 1 and 2 was completed in the 1990s. However, due to limited home construction by allottees—mostly from Azad Jammu & Kashmir—some roads and utilities have deteriorated.

The good news?

The current JKCHS management has restarted repair and rehabilitation.
A 10-Marla model house is built to encourage allottees to construct homes.
Electricity and security staff are present.
