Drawbacks of E-11 (I have sold my house in E-11)
- e/11 is developed by private societies and not by CDA. CDA refused to take over from societies due to the fact that they violated approved planning /map.
- Reserved plots for parks and green areas sold as commercial and residential plots, there is not a single park in whole E-11 sector
- Land for schools have been sold as residential and commercial plots, no school plot left in the whole sector
- In all four sub sectors, land of nullahs have been filled, extra plots created and sold. This resulted heavy flood last year when these nullah over flooded and retaining walls were shattered. This is major concern which is till not sorted out.
- Improper development work was done. As a result this is the only sector in Islamabad where there are five story houses in deep excavation and some of the house has their ground floor door on their neighbour’s roof particularly in High Street (Street 77)
- Whole sector has only one accessible road which is unfinished for the last three years due to litigation
- Societies have barred open access in various parts of E-11 by putting gates on their boundaries
- Societies have imposed monthly service charges on account of street lights, waste, and drainage, where as there are no street lights in most of the areas, no waste disposal system in place, no proper drainage system with sewage inflow at most places.
- Lot of residential plots have been converted into commercial plot and there is litigation on this issue within societies
-Half of the roads are still kacha where houses are constructed years back and presently covered with heap of dust of kacha roads.
- Most of the houses are rented out by the owners because the present living conditions are not conducive, that’s why the rent is much less even that of G/11 |
