ISLAMABAD – The number of illegal housing societies in twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad continues to climb higher, prompting CDA, RDA, and other officials to intensify crackdown.
The country’s capital city and its outskirts saw surge in illegal housing societies in previous years, amid influx. As demand for affordable housing rises, unapproved schemes have begun to mushroom, often without proper planning, infrastructure, or regulatory approval.
RDA even lodged FIRs against dozen of illegal schemes for operating without required approvals. Authorities have also taken action against unauthorized advertising. If you are planning to buy any piece of land, make sure to check full status of housing societies here.
