Islamabad Master Plan: Federal government makes 12 member commission

*ISLAMABAD - Federal government has taken important step over the case of Islamabad Master Plan. *

*The Ministry of Interior on Tuesday constituted a 12-member federal commission to review the master plan of Islamabad.*

The chairman Capital Development Authority will perform the duty of convener of the commission, which will review the master plan and give recommendations up to 2040.

The federal commission will also review abilities of the existing master plan and possible regularisation of illegally constructed buildings.

It will also find ways to improve the role of health, education and private sectors.

The commission has been tasked to complete the review within six months, under which it would give recommendations for short-term and long-term development.
