Islamabad: Special Assistant to the Prime Minister (SAPM) on Capital Development Authority (CDA) Ali Nawaz Awan recently announced the development authority’s decision to re-launch the development of three stalled residential sectors within the next six months — a news source reported.
Reportedly, the CDA hasn’t developed any new sectors in the
city over the past few decades. This has contributed to the rising property prices
in the capital, and exacerbated the housing issues faced by middle and lower
income people.
In this regard, SAPM Awan announced that development work would be beginning in the E-12, I-12 and I-15 sectors soon, and that the PC-I for these areas had already been approved.
There are a number of sectors in the city in which
development work seems to have stalled. These include C-13, C-14, C-15, C-16,
D-13, E-13, F-13, H-16, I-12, 1-14, I-15, I-17, Kuri Model Village, Park
Enclave II and Chattha Bakhtawar.
Lastly, Mr. Awan took the opportunity to further announce
that additional projects worth PKR 1.5 billion would also be initiated in the
rural areas of the city.
