Angoori Bagh Scheme No 1 is a low-cost family-housing project completed in 1975, commissioned by the Government National Construction Limited and designed by architect Yasmeen Lari. It comprises 787 dwellings in 14 clusters with climate-responsive layouts, verandahs, and courtyards, offering affordable 5-marla and larger homes in a well-planned community. The scheme is an established locality with easy access to GT Road and Ring Road, proximity to Shalimar Gardens, and nearby schools, markets, and clinics, making it a stable residential area for medium- and low-income families.

Angoori Bagh Scheme No. 1 — located in Baghbanpura near Shalamar Link Road, Lahore — is confirmed as an LDA-approved low-cost housing society, originally sanctioned in 1981 and still legally active. The most recent official regulatory record is an Establishment Licence (ELI-01165) issued on 10 October 2023. As of March 2026, private resale activity continues: individual flats and a 7-Marla house are advertised for sale at approximately PKR 35 million, indicating sustained market liquidity. No new government-led development or scheme-specific policy change has been announced; broader regulatory updates (e.g., Punjab Gazette Amendment 2026) apply uniformly to all housing schemes.
The Punjab Gazette Amendment 2026 establishes a standardized regulatory framework applicable to all housing schemes in Punjab, including Angoori Bagh Scheme No. 1. Key provisions include: introduction of a Low-Cost Housing Category with relaxed planning standards (e.g., 15–20 ft internal roads), mandatory digital approval system, strict ownership restrictions (max 5 entities), compulsory EPA environmental compliance, and enforceable buyer protection rules (e.g., 15-day notice for plot cancellation). These rules do not introduce scheme-specific changes but reinforce transparency and accountability across the sector.
Peaceful atmosphere away from the city center with a close-knit neighborhood vibe, providing a community-oriented setting.
Lower-cost residential neighborhood offering affordable housing options, particularly 5-Marla-type houses.
Easy access to major arteries like Shalimar Link Road, GT Road, and Ring Road, with established schools, clinics, and markets nearby, and basic amenities within walking distance.
Newer developments have progressed more slowly than expected, leading to concerns over property-value appreciation.
Aging infrastructure including uneven or cracked roads, intermittent water supply, inadequate sewage drainage, and frequent power outages.
