In my view The people who got plots in DHA Phase 9 Prism are very lucky. DHA Ph 9 will compete DHA EME ph 1 in future. Insha Allah. Mark my words. Don't sell yours plots in panic (unless u need money). Stay firmed and believe in Allah.

AB replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 05:40 AM PST

Block B replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:03 PM PST 

EME is like a single block on front of phase 9 .

Phase 9 . this is a confirmed news that 2 villages 1)buller and 2) dev kan are land locked with DHA phase 9 means no passage , these 2 villages will be taken by dha in near future as expansion also the factory areas at the boundry of N and P are also under negations'

aslam replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:35 PM PST 

Pls dont spread false rumors. Villages in other DHA phases are also land locked but none of them moved from there. Legally, u cant stop them from moving in & out. Come on yar

Jjj replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:47 PM PST 

Whatever is going to acquire by DHA that is fine janab that will reduce the dark edge but issue will be for the left over permanently. And u said come on yaar movement of those people are fine then here what issue we are talking about.

ashraf replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:53 PM PST 

aslam brother please name any village in dha which is land locked and has passage from DHA , DHA built a wall on the boundaries to separate its boundaries. buller and dev kan are totally land locked with no entrance and no sewerage, pl wait and see .

jawed replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:55 PM PST 

Pakistan is full of idiots and stupid's ,even a blind man when see the map can predict that these villages will be gone because the land owners will get prime price.

Tasawar replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:56 PM PST 

There are public roads to that villages how is it possible DHA acquire public road and will not give them alternate path.

Tasawar replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:58 PM PST 

DHA build wall around the village but will provide them one or two paths.

ashraf replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:58 PM PST 

pl visit Punjab society near phase 4 and see that dha did not gave them excess .

jawed replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:00 AM PST 

why these villagers will not sell land when they are offered high
prices ?????

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:02 AM PST 

Punjab society has its own excess on ghazi road if Punjab society hadn't any any excess except DHA then DHA couldn't stop their path.

Jjj replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:04 AM PST 

Jawed please read what Tasawar is saying and decide who is idiot, and why don't you come and see that DHA security is standing at the entrance of Village Charar and watch if any one is denied entry to PH3 Z Block.

ashraf replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:04 AM PST 

in 1988 Dha stopped the excess Punjab society has to wait for years to get excess from ghazi road , this is why this society development was late .

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:08 AM PST 

in 1988 it was LCCHS not DHA. and punjab has not any population.

jawed replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:08 AM PST 

Jjj , the entrance which you mentioned is from ghazi road which is not dha and was their before dha was developed . this road belongs to cantt board and is a commercial road, villages roads are not commercial ,they don't have any road they owned . this is why I said idiots are always their around us.

ashraf replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:11 AM PST 

tasawar , pl go and talk to Punjab society to find the history of their conflict with DHA then LCCHS.

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:15 AM PST 

Dear ashraf i didn't say you are wrong. entrance of populated area couldn't be block. at that time punjab society hadn't any population.

Jameel replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:15 AM PST 

It never happened in Last 10 years, in 2006 DHA 7 map showed plots on almost All small villages and Graveyards in their initial Plan, But each and every village even Cluster of 7,8 Houses Stayed.
Next year 2007 it was "Rumorized" by many dealers that DHA 8 park view villages we be relocated and people continued doing sale and purchase of
Files based on this information, But all villages stayed back. People had no information next 5 years. Thankfully after 5 years file holders were relocated in Cutting very close to BRB.
The Fact is all villages you see in Google will stay and some patches of Land Close to these villages will also be unoccupied based on DHA 7 example.
The reason why Yohanabad is so big on DHA map than actually showing on Google is that some Land arround Yohanabd is also not given to DHA, the deal looks Clear and DHA is Making a Church near Yohanabad.

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:22 AM PST 

agreed jameel

Jameel replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:34 AM PST 

Gobin Pura, Sangat pura and Dhira are Land Locked by DHA in phase 7, similarly 2 small villages are land locked in DHA 8 proper and not taken over,
As per Supreme Court ruling DHA or any other society cannot Block the passage of even one house, your assumption is wrong. DHA Blocked Punjab Society as they had alternate route open,
Before 2003 there were some relocations at 3 Lac per Merla, decided by Court. As villages have small houses like 2, 1.5 Merla some were not ready to surrender even at that price. Later rate was revised to 7 Lac per Merla by court, At that point 2006 Onwards DHA stooped clearing encroachments by paying cash and surrounded them by boundary giving one or 2 passages.

ahmed replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:39 AM PST 

what about buller village

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:43 AM PST 

ahmed buller village will stay on Google earth and physically as well.Mr. Jameel beautifully explained.

Omair replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:51 AM PST 

Then block h will be the biggest loser...All the plots in my opinion will trade much lower than the other blocks as passage for Youhanbad has to be through block h.....

kamran replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 01:31 AM PST 

i AM 100 % sURE DHA cant clear these villages, DHA cleared only one village in phase 6 near Golf course, Golf course construction was stopped by villagers and they dont allow clear the Graveyard, DHA give one million per Marla to all Villagers to clear the land, because it was so important to clear the space, Now DHA it not in interest to clear the land, So why they will spend money for people

Ashfaq replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 01:40 AM PST 

@Jawed sb, have u read the detailed reply from Jameel sb?
Please think about urself before calling somebody idiot. I am sure here forum members have more knowledge & sense than u

Facts of PH-9

Due to several villages, few societies including Yahunabad, the dirty mess of traffic like many many number of Motorcyclist are using DHA roads, people of those village and societies are rooming around on the streets and enjoying all the facilities are enjoying after owning the most least value of property compare to those who have paid millions of rupees to buy DHA plots.
I know Whenever I get chance to stay with one of my friends house in Phase3/Z the sound of Motorcycle is the most bother me and the riders are all from Village of Charar.
Request to all please express your feelings.

Shahzad replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:38 PM PST 

Agreed. Charr people not only move freely in DHA but also involve in theft cases. Houses near villages are victims of such incidents. Side mirrors of the cars are usually found missing after every 4-5 months. My relative is living in Z-block and suffering from Charr village.

Tasawar replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:45 PM PST 

as per law DHA can't stop the from using connecting roads. they are living here from centuries.

Rmm replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:56 PM PST 

I know when the modern areas in western societies are filled with Black peoples then gradually/slowly white pigeons start leaving the area due to crimes and their dirty style of living, and then creat another society but they make it very expensive out of their reach to stop them.

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:01 AM PST 

villagers are not the black peoples they are same like us. most of us have village background.

Rmm replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:10 AM PST 

Tasawar Bhai don't take it personal we have genuine or general discussion if you do like villagers and village although they are our brothers and also dear to us, but then Tasawar Brother leave this subject and go live somewhere in village instead of poking your nose to this discussion please. The land in village is for 5 lac per Kanal why are you ready to pat 120 Lac for DHA land.

ashraf replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:13 AM PST 

Is Mr Zardari is also from charr village as he is the biggest thief of Pakistan??

Tasawar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 12:17 AM PST 

Rmm. why poeples are arguing to stop the entrance of villages. they should move a another
location far from villages. villagers have the right of path.

shahryar replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 01:47 AM PST 

Surprisingly, many people on this forum started talking about the villages in Phase-9 after balloting. Villages are there for many years in almost every phase of DHA but nobody discussed so much about it before. Should i believe most of the phase-9 investors are new or they have very limited knowledge about
DHA lahore working & its historical performance?

omer replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 02:25 AM PST 

actually mostly people buy those
files through dealers without knowing where phase 9 exactly locates.and this whole fuss created about villages is that now the investors have hard time to sell their inventory to smart buyers .i dont know who stupid advice dha to make 5 marla plots (must be some crazy dealer).this whole mess of phase 9 is created by 5 marlas owners who have no heart and no patience and bringing the whole market to their knees .

Kkk replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 02:38 AM PST 

@shahryar, Phases used to be small before and used to have hardly either none or only one village per phase, her the situation is different firstly after balloting the map was shown to the public and investors came to know that more than one village is there so quantity is bothering, no doubt the size of the PH-9 is also equal to many old phases.

@omer I agreed that more than 5000 plots are only 5 Marla plus same size of Shuhda Town Plus Same size of DHA Town. DHA should have separate 5 Marla phase in it.
Now holder of one kanal house will watch cricket in many streets like old areas or Mohallas and plastic shoppers are flying everywhere.

omer replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 03:27 AM PST 

@kkk ,lol cant imagine those diaper free kids on the lane two khayaban e shaheen dha phase 9 :P

Kkk replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 04:27 AM PST 

@Omer u can imagine or expect anything Bro, imagine ,,, Phase9 5 Marla 5000+ Shuhda&DHA Town 3000+Yuhanabad 4000+ all villages 2000 Total= 13000 Houses.
In each house suppose 5 family member Total 65000 people. Each house will have Ay least one Motorcycle plus car so 65000 Motorcycle + 65000 cars 130,000 vehicles in PH-9. Plus Chachora pann in McDonald's, Gloria Jeans, also small group of you boys standing at the corner of each street throwing dirty look at passerby ladies. Plus Bassant (Patang Bazzi) etc etc Man you name it.

Kkk replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 05:01 AM PST 

DHA security will be suffering the most lol one million calls only from 5 Marla houses for small issues because they never had such a lavish opportunity to call security guard on each other lol.

I guess the impact has to be positive especially on the boundary plots of B and D blocks of town. If that is the case then there are many lessons and good news for Prism plot holders currently having boundary plots with open or unplanned areas.

Why affidavit plot price is less.?
Any risk to but affidavit plot in DHA?

Thank you

Jameel replied on Thursday, May 21, 2015 02:24 AM PST 

There are 3 stages
Affidavit file>>>>> after land ownership by DHA [Cleared by Land department Including Patwari] >>>>>>>> Becomes allocation file [ it means in next Ballot DHA will give Plot Vs this file>>>>>>>>> Ballot Now your allocation is Converted in Plot You pay development charges >>>>>> development takes 6,7 years>>>> Possession announced Now you can make Home

90% there are no issues in Affidavit
files but 10% there are issues that is why people only pay token of One Lac and pay rest of money in DHA office once intimation issued "that this File's Land issues cleared and now allocation will be issued". After that usually in 6 weeks Allocation is issued.

AAA replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 08:32 PM PST 

US $5000 from Pakistan and $10000 from USA. My advise keep $50 minus from these amount per person. Please search State Bank Of Pakistan latest notification in this regard.Kids under 3 years have 25% of this quota.This information is about last Xmas time.

Hussain replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 08:35 PM PST 

AAA's information is correct. Govt. reduced the limit from 10000 to 5000 last year.

Jjj replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:31 PM PST 

Ahmet but then you should have ability to take pain like her.
And the amount to carry is not per person though if family is traveling together then it is consider per family. Otherwise a family of 6 can take $ 60,000/- at once or 30,000 if it is allowed 5000, the sequence of boarding cards and passports can prove that it's same family.

wj replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2015 11:58 PM PST 

Each individual can take 10000 USD not per family... please read below information that i grabbed from SBP website (chapter 18)



Export of Foreign Exchange.

i would like to share my personal experience while traveling out of canada. customs stopped my husband in jetty not at security checkpoints and asked for if he is carrying any cash . if yes then it should b less than 10000$ not even 10000&exact. the next question was if any of his family members travelling with him. they asked me and kids to b disembark with all our hand carrys and calculated all the cash carried by me and my husband in $ , and all the tid bits of pak rs and few dirhams and when they found out it 9900$ altogether then they let us go.
its per family not per person . per person if the family is traveling seperately.

It's all confusing. I'm pasting new item from Dunya news "SLAMABAD: (Dunya News) – Federal Minister for Finance Ishaq Dar presided an important meeting on Thursday where governor State Bank told that the cash limit allowance of ten thousand dollars for foreign travel is being abused and acting upon the situation, government has lowered the maximum allowance limit to five thousand dollars. This move is expected to curb the abuse of previous allowance limit.
It was decided that children of up to age 12 will be allowed a maximum of two thousand five hundred dollars whereas the allowance cap for the newly born children will be one thousand two hundred and fifty dollars.
Federal minister said that the five thousand dollars limit is applicable to the passengers who want to carry foreign currency while traveling abroad. It was also decided that with effect from March 17, 2014; the exports to Afghanistan will not be permitted in Pakistani rupees. Both countries will be able to use regular banking channels for payments.
Pakistan has held ten thousand dollars cap for international travelers for many years. It merits mentioning here that the maximum cash allowance limit for international travel is ten thousand dollars in several other countries as well."
According to state bank website it's 10,000 dollars
