RAWALPINDI: Under the orders of Director General, Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA), Muhammad Saif Anwar Jappa, the Enforcement Squad of RDA has executed an operation against an unauthorized housing project named Al-Qaim Mansion.
Located in Mouza Adyala on Adyala Road, Rawalpindi, the project’s site office has been sealed and demolished, according to a spokesperson for the RDA.
The spokesperson detailed that the Enforcement Squad is intensifying its efforts to combat illegal housing projects, with notices being issued to Mr. Aamir Shahzad, the proprietor of the Al-Qaim Mansion, under section 39, 12 (5) of the Punjab Development of Cities Act 1976 and section 38 of the Punjab Development Authorities Private Housing Schemes Rules 2021.
The operation was carried out in collaboration with local police from Sadar Beroni police station and included key RDA personnel, such as the Assistant Director Building Control, Deputy Incharge, and Superintendent Scheme.
Mr. Shahzad had been operating the illegal housing scheme’s site office in flagrant violation of established rules, leading to the lodging of a First Information Report (FIR) against him. The FIR, numbered 1653/2021, has been registered at the Sadar Beroni police station.
In light of these events, the RDA’s Director General is urging the public to refrain from investing in illegal and unauthorized housing schemes that the RDA has deemed unlawful.
Investors can verify the status of these projects on the RDA website, www.rda.gop.pk, to avoid potential losses for which they will be held accountable.
Further instructions from the DG have directed the MP&TE Directorate to take a hard stance against such illegal and unauthorized housing projects. This includes their development, the construction of booking and site offices, and any encroachments, all of which should be handled without fear or favor.
The RDA has also appealed to key service providers, including the Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO), Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Ltd (SNGPL), and PTCL, not to provide services to these unauthorized housing schemes, as they have been deemed illegal.

Let us atleast appreciate RDA for taking a good step.

Assalaam-O-Alaikum.
I think this is abold step of sealing the unauthorised and illegal housing societies and saving the innocent public from investing in such societies. Now it is up to the public to be careful and on future before purchasing the plot they should take advise from the RDA Rawalpindi
قائم منشن کا آفا پچھلے تین سال سے قائم ہے آر ڈی اے کو اب یاد آگئی ان کے باقاعدہ اکاونٹس ہے اور مختلف ڈیپارٹمنٹس سے این او سی بھی مل چکے ہے یہ سب سوچے سمجھے سازش ہے اور قائم منشن نے بات فائنل کرکے سب کچھ بحال کیا ہے
This is not fair for the investors those money vanished up til now who was responsible from RDA, CDA and others watching innocent people were investing huge amount in these schemes.
Indeed great effort by RDA, but strict violations are being carried out by big Fish Like Bahria Town In Rawalpindi who is confiscating the Soan river land by encroching into the river lands and constructing shopping plazas. Moreover, they are changing layout plans without prior approval from RDA, this illegal and unethical land grabbing and atrocities on Bahria Town Residents should also stopped by the regulator.
Aslaam o Alaikum I tink this is the best action RDA taken. This is really great full what RDA done.
I hope CDA should do the same thing with these society’s.
I read that there is more then one hundred and seventy five Housing societies are illegal in RDA and CDA I would request To CDA and RDA to crackdown these groups of societies.
To save people’s life times hard earning money.
Thank you RDA
Regard Javed
I believe a thorough crackdown is necessary to address illegal societies and protect people’s hard-earned money over their lifetimes.
Many poor purchaser dreams cracks after this but lots of RDA officers make money from illegal society. Basically it responsibility of RDA director general to take prior action on illegal act through his subordinate staff.
