DHA Valley,

(65979)
Tuesday, June 28, 2011 11:00 AM 

I have seen several people asking status update of DHA Valley. I have replied to several queries but few people insist that DHA valley project is going on without any problem. So for all my brothers who have invested and are planning to invest in DHA Valley, please read below excerpts from different sources.

The Element of Fraud from DHA Authorities

Many people believe that the whole project is a fraud. It is known that DHA has only purchased 10% of the land required to complete the project. Whereas, according to the land laws of Pakistan government, they need to buy at least 85% of the land beforehand starting the project and taking money from them. The local land-owners of the area, after knowing that their land is worthy, rejected the offers from DHA to sell their land. It means that the project will never be completed and the town planning shown to the people will never happen. There is another serious problem to the execution of the project. DHA needs to surrender around 2,300 acres of land to local government authorities because this was the land previously decided to build a dam upon it.[6]Punjab government has decided to recover this land from the three big organizations i.e., Defence Housing Authority, Bahria Town and Habib Rafiq Ltd in Kahuta and Kallar Syedaan tehsils for the construction of Dhadhocha Dam to meet the water needs mainly of Rawalpindi and to some extent of Islamabad. This will severely affect the town planning and in-fact the whole project.

Concerns about DHA Homes

There are several concerns about DHA Homes. First, the whole construction is relocated to the edge of DHA valley, while in the initial maps, was shown right in the center of DHA valley. This shows that DHA authorities are facing difficulties in getting the land from local residents. Also it flashes the concern that the whole valley will be relocated, further far away from Rawalpindi/Islamabad. Second, the company which was constructing the homes, AREAA, has dropped the project from the list of their ongoing projects, which shows the lack of interest, or possibly, drop of the whole DHA Homes agreement. Till now DHA authorities are unable to clarify any concern communicated by the members of this community.

Check out below URL of AREAA Construction company which was awarded contract for building DHA homes. Their site does not show DHA Homes in their ongoing project list which is of serious concern for all allottess who have paid millions of rupees to DHA.

We are Manaafqeen instead of KAFIR or Mulsim. We deserve this.
Our religious scholar always talk KAFIR , KAFIR. but when some on asked them about the KAFIR that why your against KAFIR they said KAFIR drinking alcohol and Zinah.

What we Majaafqeen are doing:

Every bad habit on earth + Alcohol + Zinah, where we stand?

When some ask from religious scholar i am going to west, they said do not go their (JAZAZA NASEEB NAI HO GAA) Who will pray your janaza after deth.

But in Muslim countries they are eating the live Muslim brothers.

I do not know where we are going.

Aik Kalma hee acha a Muslims kay pass

If it truly is a fraud, again, the victims will be people from the lower middle class who opted to buy in DHA Valley due to the easy installment plan. Again, it will be the downtrodden and the voiceless who will suffer, and I guess the image of DHA and especially our military establishment will be tarnished. This goes to reflect the sad state of affairs in Pakistan where there is no justice for the poor.

May ALLAH ALMIGHTY help us to improve upon ourselves so that we can become rolemodels for the rest of the world.

@Malik

I would suggest not to even think of DHA Valley. Dont waste your hard earned money in this fraud scheme. Two of my friends had 8 marla plot in valley and they sold those plots for -180,000 to -200,000. Rather invest your money in some other project like Bahria Town Safari Valley or Gulberg Islamabad.

We should trust on DHAI, if there is any scam in land acquisition, i am sure DHAI will accommodate their paid client in others phases-2 or extensions or new location.

AK replied on Wednesday, June 29, 2011 10:32 AM 

@Trust dhai...

People invest their hard earned money in such projects. Please meet and ask DHA valley allottees about their feelings of loosing their money. Having trust since 2008 launch of DHA Valley till now is good enough to realize that further investment in DHA+BT collaboration projects is risky.

You guys are going to give a heart attack to those who invested in DHA Valley, DHA has a good reputation all around Pakistan, they will Insha-Allah provide a better alternative, so relax please.

Do not tell lies replied on Wednesday, June 29, 2011 08:04 PM 

DHA Home is still there on the builder's website. Lies are being told here to stop people to invest in valley!

AK replied on Thursday, June 30, 2011 03:53 AM 

Repeat for Mr. Broker who is posting with different names here.


Its funny to see that you didn't read the website carefully and jumped down to conclusion calling people liar... Please check the website again. It shows only BAHRIA HOMES not DHA HOMES. If you can please paste screen shot here with DHA HOMES in their project list, I will take back my words. Otherwise calling people liar without reading carefully is pretty lame.

I can not understand why people are so emotional that they dont even read the stuff carefully.
