Islamabad cracks down on illegal housing as Randhawa vows citizen protection

Muhammad Ali Randhawa leads Islamabad's Capital Development Authority and serves as Chief Commissioner. He announced that meeting residential housing demands takes precedence over city beautification projects. Randhawa promised harsh penalties for unauthorized construction and illegal housing developments during a leadership meeting. Senior officials attended the session to discuss enforcement strategies against housing violations.

The planning department reported active legal proceedings against unauthorized residential societies across multiple city zones. Officials will create detailed records of all private and cooperative housing developments with their approved layouts and certificates. The authority plans to build a comprehensive database tracking plot sales that exceed permitted limits. Citizens can verify housing society legality through the updated government website before making investments.

The administration adopted strict enforcement measures against illegal building activities to protect environmental standards. Authorities will prosecute individuals who supply construction materials to unauthorized developments. The meeting established immediate implementation of zoning regulations throughout the territory. Randhawa emphasized protecting public interests through swift action against illegal cooperative societies.
