According to the RDA Managing Director Saif Anwar Jappa, the authority has issued notices and registered FIRs against the sponsors of these illegal housing schemes. He warned the general public against investing in illegal housing schemes and advised sponsors to stop marketing their unapproved/illegal housing schemes and contact RDA to obtain the requisite NOC/approval of the scheme as per the law; otherwise, strict legal action will be taken against them.
The RDA has also sent letters to various organizations, including The Governor State Bank of Pakistan, The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Rawalpindi, Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Islamabad, Cyber Crime Islamabad, Overseas Pakistanis Foundation Islamabad, SNGPL Islamabad, The District Collector Rawalpindi, District Council Rawalpindi, PEMRA Islamabad, and Commissioner Islamabad, about the illegal advertisements of private housing schemes on social media, WhatsApp, YouTube, and other internet apps. Some owners/developers claimed that they got NOCs from the RDA, which the authority refuted and urged the public to verify from video clips floated by the sponsors on YouTube.
The Director General RDA has directed the MP&TE Directorate to take strict action against illegal/unauthorized housing schemes, constructions, commercial activities, booking offices, and encroachments without any fear or favor.
