The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has asked the encroachers, particularly those of slum areas to vacate the land, otherwise operation would be launched against the encroachments. The CDA through a public notice has warned all unauthorized occupants of CDA land and encroachers especially the slum dwellers (Katchi Abadis) in sector I-11 to vacate CDA land within seven days, said a spokesman of the CDA here on Thursday.
He said that through the public notice the authority had asked the illegal occupants to vacate the CDA land to avoid the operation planned by the authority for vacating the acquired land from adverse position. The operation would be carried out against all unauthorized occupants at their risk and cost without any further notice after laps of the seven-day period.
CDA has launched an operation in light of the directives of Supreme Court of Pakistan to get its acquired land released from adverse possession in different areas of the Federal Capital, he said. Chairman CDA Imtiaz Inayat Elahi directed the enforcement teams to get CDA land vacated from the adverse possession in the light of the decision of the Supreme Court.
He has also directed that the operation should be across the board and no concession be given to anyone in this regard. He said that CDA is setting up pickets in the area after getting the possession of the land. He said that the adverse possession of land and subsequent ill-planned construction has damaged the beautification of the Federal Capital. He said that the development in the city in a planned manner is the basic responsibility of the Authority and CDA would start development activities after getting the land released.
