The warning is meant to curb illegal and hazardous building works involving interference with the urban planning, blockage of drainage systems, and hazards. According to officials, unapproved buildings are often not subject to major safety inspections and zoning regulations. Those companies that offer construction materials without ensuring that the builder has legal right to work will also be punished.
The CDA urges the populace to ensure that they are licensed to engage the state in any kind of building activity. The information or necessary documents on the process can be found on official channels of CDA. The ICT administration pointed out that already demolitions and FIRs were the results of the recent crackdowns.
