ISLAMABAD: Chairman of the Capital Development Authority (CDA) Mohammad Ali Randhawa has directed the engineering wing to complete the development work in Islamabad’s Sector C-14 by the end of next month and in Sector I-12 within three months.
According to sources, the chairman expressed strong displeasure over delays in development projects and reprimanded several officials from the engineering and land wings for failing to meet deadlines. He warned that strict action would be taken against those who continue to show poor performance.
It is worth mentioning that CDA has struggled with sector development for years, as the last fully developed sector — D-12 — was completed nearly two decades ago.
Meanwhile, a press release stated that a working group has been formed to speed up the development of new sectors and remove hurdles affecting progress.
Another working group will focus on upgrading older sectors by preparing a comprehensive plan for infrastructure restoration, horticulture, landscaping, and the addition of modern facilities.
