Islamabad: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) declared some buildings in Bani Gala and Sector E-11 as illegal, and the Capital Development Authority and Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) administration are taking all measures necessary to deal with these encroachments, according to a news report.
However, actions against these encroachments will be taken after civic body and the environmental commission has conducted a thorough study for the master plan of the capital. As the first step, all ongoing illegal construction activity will be halted to ensure no further structures are built.
The IHC directed the CDA to revise Islamabad’s master plan and assess its efficacy, keeping in view environmental concerns. The court has also directed the Chief Commissioner Islamabad to assist the CDA in ensuring no construction in the area is carried out without the authority’s permission.
