The same allegation has been made for Sector F, but with an additional claim: apparently, this sector is being marketed illegally through media advertisements. Bahria Orchard\u2019s Phase II has also been hit hard in the same manner.<\/p>\n<p>The online flyer hints at Clause 18(2) of the Private Housing Schemes &amp; Land Subdivision Rules 2010, according to which properties in any project cannot be advertised before the housing scheme has been approved by the authorities concerned. Moreover, under Clause 40 of the LDA Act 1975, the civic authority is authorised to demolish illegal developments.<\/p>\n<p>The LDA has warned prospective buyers to stay away from the projects in question and has clarified that the authority cannot and will not be held responsible for any losses that may occur.<\/p>\n<p>Bahria Town\u2019s Sector F is already a bone of contention between Bahria Town and property owners, who claim that the developer has failed to hand over possession well past the expected time. Furthermore, Lahore Ring Road\u2019s southern loop, which is expected to cut through Bahria Town, is also a cause for lasting concern. Simply put, Bahria Town is facing a number of controversies. If left unattended, these can impair the developer\u2019s goodwill and also shift investor focus.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s talk a little about the LDA. The authority has indeed made big claims, which will probably cause an immediate price drop in Bahria Town. But should the authority be pointing at issues in other societies when its own LDA Avenue I on Raiwind Road is still incomplete? Please note that the project was launched more than a decade ago!<\/p>\n<p>LDA City, too, is in hot water. It is currently being dealt with by the National Accountability Bureau. The project was promulgated as the biggest residential project, spanning more than 60,000 kanals, but has shown no traces of development so far.<\/p>\n<p>I am neither favouring Bahria Town nor the LDA \u2013 I am simply putting both sides of the argument on the table. With that, I am leaving this discussion open for you to comment on.
