Development Works Status
The development works in KMT were carried out in 1990 in Phases I and II.
However, Phase III is yet to be developed. As time passed, the work done in Phases I and II became dilapidated due to the allottees’ non-construction.
That said, ongoing management has started the repair and rehabilitation works in KMT in Phases I and II.

In addition, Phases I and II offer utility services like electricity. Moreover, security staff have been deployed to ensure the safety of the model town.
A question people get asked?
Is a willing allottee able to build a house in KMT now?
Our short answer to this question is always ‘Yes’.
(Because
a 10-Marla MODEL HOUSE already built in KMT to attract the attention of those allottees of KMT who intend to build a house).
However, most allottees of this project belong to far-flung Azad Jammu & Kashmir areas or are unwilling to build a house immediately because some utilities are not present in KMT Rawalpindi.
Possession 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.
Location
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 GPO, Islamabad.
