In compliance with the directives of the Divisional Intelligence Committee, the Task Force is intensifying its operations against illegal housing schemes.
Recently, the RDA Enforcement Squad targeted Century Town, an illegal housing scheme located in mouzaBaggaSheikhan, Rawalpindi. During the operation, the team demolished three containers of this housing illegal scheme.
A spokesperson for the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) confirmed that the operation was supervised by Commissioner Rawalpindi Division Muhammad Abdul AamerKhattak, along with Director General (DG) RDA Kinza Murtaza, Additional DG RDA, Deputy Commissioner (DC) Rawalpindi, and
Chief Police Officer (CPO) Rawalpindi.
DG RDA KinzaMurtaza emphasized that, under the Commissioner’s guidance, the crackdown on illegal housing societies will persist vigorously to prevent fraud and protect citizens from exploitation. She highlighted that public complaints regarding illegal land occupation by housing scheme owners are being taken seriously, and strict measures will be enforced against those engaging in forceful land grabs.
The RDA regularly issues press releases to inform the public and advises citizens to avoid investing in illegal housing schemes. Instead, the public is encouraged to visit the RDA website (www.rda.gop.pk) and only engage with approved housing schemes.
Despite previous warnings to cease illegal advertisements, bookings, and development, the owners of the aforementioned housing schemes continued to operate booking offices in violation of regulations.
The operation team included officials from the RDA and representatives from Police Station Rawat. Key team members included Shiza Butt, Assistant Director Planning RDA, along with RDA Scheme/Building Inspectors and other team members.
