G-14 development project at stake

ISLAMABAD—Owing to nonexistence of coordination among Government departments, the development of Sector G-14 is in doldrums and matters related to acquirement of the land and issuing of allotment letters has still not been resolved causing anxiety among thousands of allotees of the sector.
The allotees of the sector while expressing concern over delay in the development of the project said that there is no coordination among Government Employees Housing Foundation, the Capital Development Authority (CDA) and the District Administration. The allottees of the sector have appealed to caretaker Prime Minister, Muhammad Mian Soomro to take disciplinary action against the responsible officers and develop the sector at the earliest.
They said that the Foundation has given October 25 as the deadline for payment of all the installments and pledged that allotment of the plots would be held in the first week of November but the balloting still not been held. They said that they paid all the installments of the land but the foundation failed to acquire the land in four years. The Foundation on the other hand has the stance that the land of Sector G-14 has been acquired but the District Administration is not cooperating in carrying out the survey of the land. The officials said that CDA was asked to review the planning of the sector and the balloting cannot be held without getting the maps.
CDA officials opined that the planning has been done and now the Foundation has demanded to add more plots which is a difficult task, adding that 50 percent work has been completed while the remaining be in two weeks.—Online
