RAWALPINDI: Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) has recommended to the district administration to impose a ban on land transactions and purchases in agricultural areas located outside the peri-urban limits of Rawalpindi. RDA Additional Director General Awais Manzoor Tarar has sent a letter to the Deputy Commissioner Rawalpindi, requesting immediate action to halt land transfers in various areas of the district. This decisive move aims to protect and preserve the city’s vital green belt, an essential part of its ecological and environmental health. It is part of a broader effort to maintain a balance between urban development and environmental sustainability. “The protection of the green belt is not only critical for the beauty and aesthetics of Rawalpindi but also plays a key role in maintaining the ecological balance of the city,” said RDA Director General Kinza Murtaza in a press release. “As we progress with urban development, we must ensure that we preserve our green spaces for the well-being of future generations. A harmonious balance between growth and the environment is essential to creating a healthier, more livable city,” she said. The greenbelt areas surrounding Rawalpindi are crucial for mitigating environmental impacts such as air pollution and providing recreational spaces for residents. The decision comes in light of increasing construction activities in the region, which have raised concerns over the loss of valuable agricultural land and green spaces. RDA also encourages individuals or organisations with concerns or objections to the ban to approach the Governance Redressal Committee for further discussions or grievances. The Rawalpindi Development Authority remains committed to fostering urban growth while safeguarding the city’s natural resources for generations to come.
