Sardar Tahir Mehmood said that water supply should be provided to the housing societies from Ghazi Barotha Dam. Chairman RDA asked the delegation to share their consent and plan in this regard. Chairman RDA assured that the issues related to participation in housing societies would be referred to RDA till the decision of the competent court. No punishment or harassment will be inflicted on them.

RDA DG directed the owners of private housing schemes to transfer commercial and residential plots from RDA. Self-transfer by private housing schemes is against the law which apart from the plot buyers, the government is also at a disadvantage.
