Rawalpindi: RDA plans to reduce time for property transfer cases
The Land Estate Management Directorate of Rawalpindi Development Authority is working on a plan, which includes curtailing the period of property transfer cases from three weeks to 7-day period.
Highly placed official sources told ‘The News’ here Wednesday that the plan to reduce the period of transfer cases would be enforced in the best interest of the people who want to transfer their property within shortest possible time. This method would benefit both the dealing parties, the sources told. The decision into this effect is likely to be enforced in the mid of August 2010, which would also help the directorate of Land Estate Management to earn revenue for RDA. Similarly, the sources further informed that against the recovery target of Rs6.5 million set up for the last fiscal year 2009-2010, the directorate headed by Director Shuja Ali generated surplus amount through this process, which is estimated Rs20 million. Moreover, the RDA appreciating the work of the concerned directorate has enhanced the recovery target up to Rs30 million in the year 2010-2011 through property fees. Through another official source, ‘The News’ learnt that on the directives of the Punjab chief minister, the directorate of Land Estate Management Directorate (LEMD) has decided not to evacuate its land from those residents who had occupied it through different ways and means and built up their homes since long i.e. before the creation of RDA. A large number of RDA lands fall under Saidpur Road. However, the concerned directorate has decided not to spare commercial owners, who had illegally occupied the RDA land and established their business there. The LEMD had recently launched a grand operation in a commercial place at Saidpur Road and got vacated 4-kanal land belonging to RDA. The special judicial magistrate is dealing with this case, the sources informed. At the same time, the sources regretted that over 53-kanal land of RDA is occupied by different local government departments like TMA in the National Market and other parts of the city. The matter was discussed with the Punjab government for taking possession of the RDA lands, but due to certain compulsions, no positive outcome has been achieved. “We have not been given a nod from the Punjab government for taking possession of the occupied lands by the local government departments,” the sources added. |
