Establishing Jumuah Salaah in jamaat khanas

Q: In a town where there is 1 masjid and few jamaat khanas. Will it be permissible to establish Jumuah in the jamaat khanas also?

The furtherst jamaat khana not being further than 5 min away with a car and 5 times namaaz is also not taking place in most of the jamaat khanas?

A: It is permissible, however, people should be encouraged to go to the musjid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
