Capital Development Authority (CDA) has suspended two officials on accounts of their acts of misconduct and inefficiency. The officials whose services have been placed under suspension include Shahid Iqbal, Supervisor Enforcement Directorate and Gul Taj acting supervisor of the Enforcement Directorate. The officials have been suspended in terms of clause 8.05 of CDA Employees (service) regulations, 1992.
The officials have been suspended on their alleged involvement in illegal construction of hotel building in Northern Strip, Sector E-11. These officials neither took any action to stop the construction activity nor generated any report regarding the illegal construction thus allegedly facilitated the illegal construction. Taking notice of the matter higher authorities took action and in the first phase placed the services of these officials under suspension while for proper probe in the matter an inquiry has been directed so that action in the light of recommendations of the inquiry committee could be taken against accused officials.
Meanwhile, CDA has posted Nisha Ishtiak, officer of Pakistan Administrative Services as Director Land and Rehabilitation. The officer was earlier posted as Director law in the Authority.
In addition to recent posting and transfers, authority is ensuring that better officers be posted in the Land and Rehabilitation Directorate so that not only service delivery could be improved but the transparency in system and proper check on procedures could be ensured.
