ISLAMABAD: Sub-Committee of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Overseas Pakistanis discussed the Overseas Pakistani Foundation (OPF) valley Zone-V housing scheme and directed the high officials of concerned departments to sit together and resolve the issues relating to it amicably.

The Sub-Committee met with Syed Javed Hasnain in the chair at the committee room of the OPF on Monday. The meeting discussed the surcharge issues of the OPF Valley Zone-V.

Frontier Works Organization (FWO) official told the committee that development work is being delayed due to non-release of funds timely. We will mobilize, if only 50 percent amount is released, he said.

MNA Mahreen Razzaq Bhutto said that the project is delayed while its cost is increasing day by day. Who is responsible for the increasing cost? The issue of layout of the project was also discussed in the meeting.

A very good initiative by the subcommittee to resolve 27 years old problems of allottees of OPF Valley Islamabad that is a prime example of OPF corruption and white collar crime even after 27 years of launching the scheme OPF is unable to complete the development FWO officials statement on the remaining development work is further proof OPF Management's lies on their website and in the court of law that 100% development is complete especially when CDA hasn't even issued them completion certificate because OPF management keeps changing it's layout plans over and over ( they are found it third time now)to make illegal changes by violating the CDA bylaws reducing the green areas,creating more commercial plots and swallow the money generated by auctioning them while the scheme has already lost substantial land already due to litigations.CDA must take notice of that and deny any further changes to the LOP.

A very good initiative by the subcommittee to resolve problems of this 27 years old project that still hasn't been fully developed and is a prime example of white collar crime.FWO official's statement on development work is proof of op's claim that development is not complete and imposing surcharges is illegal but OPF management continues lieing on their website and in the court of law that development is 100% complete when the ground realities ate opposite.

Sequntial concrete steps are still required to beef up the development in OPF Islamabad. Issues of Water, Electricity may be resolved immediately and lathargic approach of officers/officials in the processes of Possession, map approval and other necessary processes must come to an end. Things will get improved in all aspect when the OPF officials get off from their couches and start working as per their job mandates. Senior OPF officials have to lead from the front.
