ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Capital Development Authority (CDA) has issued notices to religious seminaries linked to Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman over alleged violations of building regulations in the federal capital.
The notices cite unauthorised construction and non-compliance with approved building plans, warning that failure to meet regulatory requirements could lead to legal action, including the sealing of the buildings.
One of the notices was issued to Madrassa Akhtar-ul-Uloom in Islamabad over construction allegedly carried out without an approved building plan.
