The Inspection Team met with the Chairman CDA Capt (Rtd) Anwar Ul Haq and other executives of the civic body to get the first hand knowledge about these complaints and discussed with them various measures for timely resolution of the public complaints. The team went around different sections of the CDA Directorate including One Window Facilitation Desk and interacted with the residents who had come there to get redressal of their complaints.

The team observed that public at large was facing problems due to inordinate delay in completion of the construction work. The team advised CDA authorities to come up with the time frame for the completion of its ongoing projects. The Team also advised the concerned authorities to complete the process for issuing completion and transfer letters within 45 days and objection, if any, must be raised and settled within 30days.
