(Web Desk): Charsadda TMA has sealed 10 illegal housing schemes operating without official government approval.

Municipal Team Inspects Operations Across Charsadda

Action was taken following direct orders from Deputy Commissioner Fazal Rahim Marwat. Assistant Additional Commissioner Nida Shams inspected various townships, colonies, and plotting sites across the region.

Notice Issued to Dozens of Unapproved Developers

Official records reveal that 32 housing schemes received legal notices for lacking mandatory regulatory permissions. Municipal authorities checked legal documents thoroughly before sealing non-compliant properties and launching further proceedings.

Official List Identifies Key Persons Connected to Sites

An administration list includes individuals connected to these developments to assist ongoing regulatory inquiries. Authorities clarified that no criminal charges have been established yet as property records remain under review.

Administration Warns Public Against Risky Real Estate Buying

Local officials urged citizens to check plot approval records directly with municipal departments before paying money. Investing in unapproved housing sites worth Rs299,382 or more can create severe financial and legal problems for buyers.

This enforcement drive shows that local authorities are tightening control over illegal real estate developments. By sealing unapproved sites and issuing warnings, officials want to stop illegal land sales before citizens lose money. Buyers should always check government approvals before investing in new housing projects.
