Future of Formanites Housing Society,

(64417)
Saturday, April 16, 2011 11:19 AM 

AOA, In 2003 a new housing scheme has been initiated by some influential people and it was highly promoted as one of the state of the art society which will be completed in approx 6 years and will be for middle class people. Well at that time following other societies were also in process:-
1. State life phase I
2. State life Phase II
3. Sui Gas Society
4. Bankers Society
5. HBFC housing society
All these societies were in the same vicinity. Later Sui Gas got its completion, State life became good place for living as ring road was planned ahead of it. Bankers and HBFC also completed.
In these years Formanites proudly started its Phase II, Pindi and Gawdar Project (What happened with them God knows). Later management of Formanites requested for Sui Gas connection charges other than monthly installments and development charges. (Remember incase you fail to pay installment, your plot (or file) can go in cancellation and to reopen your case you have to pay extra charges as penalty). From 2003 till today you can see only one water tank in the society which is now perhaps the status symbol of this society.
After long silence once again management of Formanites woke up and informed its clients that in April 2010 all installments will be completed and (which started in 2003) and you will be given your allotted plots but same year another letter of more development charges has been forwarded to some of the clients (Not all members even), which was another bomb for those who were saving from years for their own home and were relying on the management of Formanites. In all these years several times map of society revised due to one or another reason ( Thank God this didn’t happen after the habitation, if it happened then every month we had to change our house number plate and who knows one day you woke up and got the news that today your house is not in formanites).
Now again there is a rumor in the air that map of Formanites has been changed again and if your plot is not in the new map then you only get the half price of whatever you have paid till today. And if you are lucky (for them offcourse) and have paid all installments then to get a new plot. you have to pay the differential amount of your paid amount and worth of new plot and only then you will be able to get the (so called) rights for plot in this society.
IS IT A JOKE???????? What about all those who have paid all their savings for their dream? Till today the development status is same as it was around three years back. Except few model houses which has been created by the management. If anyone wants to know that status of his plot, he has to visit society office atleast thrice as all office staff is very much bussy ( GOD knows doing what as the development is halted from last few years). And if you are lucky and got details of dues and penalty from the office then to see the management you have to wait to become lucky and if you are lucky enough to get that chance than instead of listing your claim you have been awarded as offender and asked to pay the dues at once otherwise all is gone for you and the reason of late development (NO development) is simple. You didn’t pay so we couldn’t do it.
WHAT IS THE future of this society??????????? Is there anyone to take action against such managements?????

The owners are too influential. They have the backing of Jamat-e-Islami. Some people tried to use Jamaat influence but the so called Maulanas who claim to be masters of destiny of the people of Pakistan also refused to help & instead sided with their fellow Jamaatis, the notorius Wattoos, who are the sponsors of FHS

These so called maulanas having islam in their support to fraud the innocient people in FHS will InshAllah will go to the HELL. They have forgot the quran teachings. I give them baddua that in hell they will get punishment.

All affectees are supposed to get together and join in collective efforts to get their just rights.

At present, the lone collective voice of Formanites Affectees is

FORMANITES WELFARE ASSOCIATION
1st Floor, G-30(Commercial), Phase I, Near Masjid Chowk, DHA, Lahore Cantt.
TEL: , ,

They have stood against the fraud of Forminites Housing Scheme management and have filed case in Courts, have approached LDA etc. and have made made good progress. However, the process is painstaking and time consuming, but do we have a choice???

FORMANITES WELFARE SOCIETY
1st Floor, G-30(Commercial), Phase I, Near Masjid Chowk, DHA, Lahore Cantt.

Dear Mr. Expert and Mr. An Affectee,well i do really appreciate your support. Can any of you have any contact in any news paper so that some journalist can help us write about such societies who are not only playing with our money but with our emotions too.

Also i request to the management of Lahore real estate to please write something about this society as people trust these sites and it is their moral and social responsibility to help all those who are effected by this storm as these people are your future customers too.
