The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has ordered an immediate halt to the sale, purchase, transfer and allotment of plots, construction and all development activities in the Kashmir Gardens Agro-Farming Scheme in Zone-IV of Islamabad, declaring the ongoing work illegal and unauthorized.
In a letter to the secretary of the Jammu and Kashmir Cooperative Housing Society, the CDA said the scheme has not obtained approval of its layout plan or a No Objection Certificate from the authority.
The CDA said the sponsor had repeatedly failed to submit the documents, information and plans required to process the scheme’s layout plan. It warned that the approval request would be treated as disposed of if the deficiencies were not addressed.
The authority also directed the society to immediately stop advertising and marketing the scheme, along with landscaping, construction and other development activities. The project is located in Mouza Phag, Panwal and Bhokkar in Zone-IV of Islamabad.
The CDA sought ownership records, sanctioned mutations, sponsors’ identity documents, audited financial statements, land possession certificates, contour and khasra plans, a non-encumbrance certificate and a detailed layout plan concept report. The society was also directed to deposit a layout plan scrutiny fee of Rs. 8.114 million.
The authority asked its enforcement and building control directorates to take action for the demolition or removal of illegal buildings and structures in the scheme. It also asked the Islamabad administration and police to ensure compliance, while IESCO and SNGPL were directed to provide utility connections only in accordance with CDA-approved layout and building plans.
