Taiser Town

Published January 15, 2018

I AM a government employee. I got a 400-square-yard plot through balloting in 2007 in Malir Development Authority’s Taiser Town scheme 45 under the civil servant quota.

I have paid all my installments of Rs1,400,000 through my bank. But to my dismay, almost after 11 years there is no development in this scheme. It’s not about me. All those who paid all their installments are still waiting for development work to start.

The Sindh government should order the authorities to start and complete development work.
