ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has lifted the prohibition on the allotment and transfer of plots by its Land and Rehabilitation Directorate.
Following the directives of the Islamabad High Court (IHC), the Land and Rehabilitation Directorate has issued a letter revoking an office order dated January 17, 2024, which had imposed restrictions on the allotment, transfer of plots, and issuance of No Demand Certificates (NDCs).
The IHC instructed the CDA to lift the ban on plot allotment and transfer on March 21. However, it took four weeks for the Land and Rehabilitation Directorate to execute the court’s directives.
There is a perception that the CDA management imposed the ban on plot allotment and transfer due to its inability to curb illegal and irregular activities within the directorate.
Over the past seven years, a significant number of small investors have suffered substantial financial losses due to plot transfers conducted by the CDA itself, which were later deemed fraudulent by the authority.
