Illegal Housing Societies Still Operational In Islamabad

Islamabad: A number of unauthorised housing societies that do not possess no-objection certificates (NOCs) from the Capital Development Authority (CDA) are still in business, and are allegedly cheating investors.

According to a news source, out of 128 housing societies, 74 were not authorised by the CDA, and only 54 had been given legal status
to sell and advertise their properties.

“The societies were declared illegal because they did not get no-objection certificates (NOCs) from the CDA,” CDA Director for Housing Societies Mr Faraz Malik told the news source.

The news source stated further that the civic authority had warned the citizens through its website against indulging in any sale or purchase of properties in these unauthorised housing schemes.
