Islamabad: The Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday issued the verdict directing the Capital Development Authority (CDA) to \u2018adapt climate<\/a> resiliency and sustainability into their town planning and policies\u2019, according to news published on July 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SC ruling came from a bench \u2013 which included Justice Shah and Justice Aminuddin \u2013 presiding over an appeal against the Islamabad High Court\u2019s rejection of a plea on February 16, 2021, regarding the non-conforming use of residential properties in Sector G-9\/4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The official verdict stated that time is high for urban planners to prioritise the climate factor in their development approaches to counteract the triple threat of climate change, biodiversity loss and air pollution. The court observed that these existential threats, climate resilience and sustainability have become \u2018constitutional obligation\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The case addressed the CDA\u2019s board of directors\u2019 decision on February 13, 1995, to commercialize residential properties located in front of the Industrial and Trading Centre in Sector G-9\/4. The board later realized that its decision violates Islamabad\u2019s master plan and reverted its decision in October 1995. The owners of non-conforming properties were also sent notices, which they challenged in IHC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The apex court upheld IHC\u2019s rejection of the plea and directed the judgement to the CDA Chairman for compliance. The judgement maintained that \u2018climate change could impair the quality of life of a person, offend his dignity and deprive him of his property or the right to fully enjoy his property\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
