According to the report officers and employees of the CDA have committed offence of irregularity while violating rules and regulations of CDA by allotting plots in developed sectors instead of under-developed sectors in Islamabad. Under the Land Disposal Regulations 2005 the plots of developed sectors would be sold through open auction but over 800 plots were created in Sector I/8, while 3187 plots had been created in other developed sectors including sectors G/10, G/11, I/10, I/11, D/12, E/11. Under the Land Disposal policy there is five percent quota of CDA employees in plots, but these employees, including officers who were appointed on deputation, were allotted extra plots than their fixed quota. They include six officers of CDA whose spouses had already been allotted plots.



The price of plots, allotted to the officers and employees of the CDA, is over Rs20.20 billions. Director Municipal Administration inflicted Rs17.28 million to the CDA by issuing licence of installing LED and trivision through pre-qualification instead of open auction in the different sites of the Capital while the DMA did not make recovery of Rs21.81 million from different licence holders.

The CDA had to face loss of over Rs2.5 billion in sale of six plots by carrying out pre-qualify of firms instead of open auction.



The director special projects did not recover Rs170.44 million from firms, which build toll plazas. The CDA had sold eight commercial plots less than the old auction rate that inflicted heavy financial loss to the institution, as the price of the plots are Rs235.82 millions.



It was also revealed that 6400 plots were allotted to illegal occupants on the acquired land of the CDA. The CDA had made Rs354.29 million double payment to illegal occupants of the acquired land.



The CDA had acquired 2909-acre land in Kurry and Rihara and paid over Rs1.12 billion in 1968-69 to the affectees. National Press Foundation occupied 352 kanal of land illegally but the Planning Wing of the CDA had issued NOC for the housing scheme, while the market value of the land is Rs7.4 billion.



The Director Mechanical Division Wing (E&M) gave contract of Rs19.94 million in phase-II of Supreme Court building without open tender. Deputy Director Works issued Rs200 millions mobilization advance to the contractor of Parliament Lodges Phase-II without taking guarantee from scheduled bank. Over Rs4.6 million was spent in the decoration of the residence of former Chairman CDA Engineer Farkhund Iqbal, which was declared illegal.



The director Municipal Administration inflicted Rs9.3 million in awarding contract of parking fees of the vegetable and fruit market (Mandi) of Islamabad. A generator of Rs2.7 million was purchased for the residence of chairman CDA without tender.
