In a decisive move against unauthorized housing ventures, the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) has taken firm action by intensifying its crackdown on violators of regulations. FIRs have been filed against 12 illegal schemes as part of ongoing efforts to combat non-compliance. Additionally, legal action is being pursued against these housing projects’ unauthorised advertising and promotion. Prior notices were issued to these ventures before the FIRs were filed.
The RDA reiterated to the violators that no development or promotional activities were permissible without obtaining the necessary NOC for launching housing schemes, apartment complexes, commercial structures, and other projects under its jurisdiction. Owners of these illegal ventures were advised to approach the RDA to obtain the required NOC and scheme approval by the law. Failure to comply would result in stringent legal measures being enforced against them.
The FIRs were lodged against the proprietors of several illegal housing schemes, including Gulshan-e-Kashmir (Asia Housing Scheme), Rawal Enclave/Rawal Town, Faisal Town Phase II, Aman Developer, Manan City, Multi Garden Phase-II, Khayaban Iftikhar, Real Estate & Builder, Nabeel Block Kohsar Extension, Kohsar Extension, Kohsar Extension F Block, and Top View City D-17.
Individuals associated with these schemes are subject to legal proceedings. Additionally, the RDA has notified various authorities, including the Governor of the State Bank of Pakistan, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Rawalpindi, FIA Cyber Crime Islamabad, Overseas Pakistanis Foundation Islamabad, SNGPL Islamabad, District Collector Rawalpindi, District Council Rawalpindi, PEMRA Islamabad, and Commissioner Islamabad, regarding the illicit advertisements of these private housing schemes on social media platforms.
The Director-General of the RDA has instructed the Metropolitan Planning and Traffic Engineering (MP&TE) Directorate to address illegal and unauthorized housing schemes, constructions, commercial activities, booking offices, and encroachments rigorously and impartially. This concerted effort by the RDA demonstrates its unwavering commitment to upholding the rule of law and safeguarding the interests of residents and investors in Rawalpindi. By cracking down on illegal housing schemes, the RDA aims to foster a regulatory environment conducive to sustainable urban development and responsible real estate practices.
