Rawalpindi: The District Planning and Design Committee DPDC approved the “land classification map” to finalise the long-awaited master plan for Rawalpindi, according to a news article on December 3.
As per the source article, a senior official disclosed that MMP had finalised the “land use classification plans” for six tehsils — Gujar Khan, Kallar Syedan, Taxila, Murree, Kotli Sattian, and Kahuta. However, the declaration of Murree as a new district led to a pause in the work on land use classification plans for Murree and Kotli Sattian. The local government administrators in Rawalpindi have already provided their consent for the master plan’s preparation in their respective areas.
The approved land classification map, based on settlement (build-up area), will serve as the foundation for the consultant to formulate a development plan aligned with the new classification (zoning) of land in Rawalpindi district. Following the notification, the RDA, upon completion of the master plan, is poised to commence work on establishing an economic zone around the Rawalpindi Ring Road.
