ISLAMABAD: The property dealers and residents of Sector I-14 Islamabad today (Sunday) have staged a protest against the non-provision of facilities by the Capital Development Authority (CDA).
Dozens of protestors, holding banners, raised slogans against the civic authority and said that because of bribery and corruption, CDA was taking a long time in developing various sectors.
The protester also criticised the civic authority for demanding bribes and unnecessary charges from citizens for the development of sector I-14. On the occasion, Sardar Amjad, President Action Committee, said, “We are suffering at the hands of corrupt CDA officials.”
He said that the civic authority’s officials especially those working in various offices of the land directorate always seem reluctant to work. “You have to pay bribes from the very start of your case right through to the end, when the plot is transferred from one owner to another,” he added.
The protestors have appealed to the concerned authorities to take legal action against the corrupt official of the civic authority. “Otherwise, we will stage a sit-in in front of the CDA buidling,” they warned.
