Quetta: The authorities concerned have decided to raze all developments found in violation of their specified building codes, reported a news source. The demolition drive will be conducted in a phase-wise manner.
In the first phase, the authorities will serve notices to the owners of illegal buildings situated in residential areas. Related actions, which could include demolition of such buildings, would be carried out in the second phase.
In particular, the authorities are looking keenly at code-violating commercial buildings developed on Jinnah Road, Patel Road, and Liaqat Bazar.
Due to Quetta being located in a seismic zone, the buildings here cannot be constructed higher than 30 feet. Presently, all developments reaching beyond this upper ceiling are being identified. These primarily include commercial buildings, plazas, and structures with two or more basements.
