Unplanned construction at Kuakata stopped
The district administration has ordered the Kalapara upazila nirbahi officer (UNO) and the assistant commissioner of land to stop all unplanned construction work at Kuakata as Urban Development Department is working to bring the area under a master plan.
Mohammad Yusuf, deputy commissioner of Patuakhali, gave the directive through a letter issued on January 26 as some realtors have started unplanned construction in the area.
Earlier on January 18, the district administration issued notice to 13 real estate companies in Kuakata asking them not to conduct work in the area without taking 'no objection' certificate.
Land section of deputy commissioner's (DC) office sent the notice (memo No S.A/Patua/22-miscllinious/ 222007-130) to the 13 companies through registered mail.
The recipient companies are Basudha Island, Green Delta Housing and Development, Cassandra Properties, Nasy Housing Development Ltd, Oriental Real State, Quality Real State Private Ltd, Century Reality Ltd, Nabodoy Housing, Ocean City Ltd, Bandhu Mohol '81 Bahumukhi Samabay Samity Ltd, Kuakata Estate Ltd and Ifle Haque Foundation -- all working in Kuakata as developers.
According to the notice, the real estate companies are to take 'no objection' certificate within seven days from the district administration by submitting necessary papers including deed of lands, master plan of the companies, certified copies of ownership of plots and others related papers, sources in the DC's office said.
In case of failure, lawful action will be taken against the companies, they added.
