RDA Issues Public Warning Against “Park View City Rawalpindi” NOC

The Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) has issued an urgent public warning against a housing scheme called “Mega City Gujjar Khan,” which is allegedly being marketed and sold under the name “Park View City Rawalpindi.” The official notice, dated May 23, 2026, declares the scheme illegal, unapproved, and potentially fraudulent.

This warning affects general public investors, overseas Pakistanis, real estate dealers, and marketing agencies operating in the Rawalpindi and Gujjar Khan regions.

Public Awareness about Warning Notice

What Is Mega City Gujjar Khan?

Mega City Gujjar Khan is a housing scheme being promoted in the Gujjar Khan area of Punjab, Pakistan. According to RDA’s official notice, the scheme is:

• Not approved by the Rawalpindi Development Authority
• Located within a proposed Spatial Development Zone (SDZ) that has not yet been officially notified
• Being illegally marketed under the established brand name “Park View City Rawalpindi” to mislead investors
• Operating without any legal permission for development, booking, sale, or marketing

RDA became aware of the scheme through field reports, public complaints, and market intelligence indicating widespread advertising on social media platforms including Facebook.

Why Is This Housing Scheme Illegal?

Under the Punjab Development Authorities Private Housing Schemes Rules 2021 and the Punjab Development of Cities Act 1976, no individual, entity, or organization is allowed to:

• Market or endorse unapproved housing schemes
• Facilitate the sale or booking of plots in unapproved schemes
• Use established brand names to mislead buyers
• Engage in any activity that misrepresents a scheme’s approval status

Mega City Gujjar Khan violates all of the above. RDA has confirmed that no approval process is even underway for this scheme, making claims of “coming soon approval” entirely false and illegal.

RDA’s Official Directives

To Park View City Rawalpindi (CEO Notice)

RDA has directly written to the CEO of Park View City Rawalpindi, directing the organization to:

1. Immediately stop any direct or indirect association with Mega City Gujjar Khan
2. Ensure no dealer, agent, or representative uses their brand name for this scheme
3. Issue clear internal instructions to all marketing networks and affiliates
4. Publicly disassociate from any unauthorized use of their brand name

To Real Estate Dealers and Agents

All property dealers, real estate agents, and marketing agencies have been strictly directed to immediately refrain from:

• Marketing or advertising Mega City Gujjar Khan / Park View City Rawalpindi (Gujjar Khan Area)
• Booking or selling plots, files, or forms
• Facilitating any transaction related to this scheme

Agents found in violation will be:

• Publicly declared as violators by RDA
• Held equally responsible alongside the scheme’s sponsors and developers

Legal & Investigation Action

RDA has referred the matter to multiple law enforcement and investigation agencies, including:

• NAB (National Accountability Bureau)
• FIA (Federal Investigation Agency)
• Anti-Corruption Establishment
• NCCIA (National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency)

Legal proceedings are being initiated against sponsors, marketers, and all facilitators involved in this illegal housing scheme business.

No Utilities Will Be Provided

• Electricity
• Gas
• Water
• Sewerage

This means that even if someone purchases a plot, they will have no legal access to basic utilities — rendering any investment completely non-functional.

• Loss of hard-earned money
• No legal ownership or possession of property
• No access to utilities
• Risk of fraud, litigation, and criminal proceedings

RDA has issued a special warning to overseas Pakistanis, who are frequently targeted by fraudulent housing schemes through social media marketing, overseas seminars, and easy installment plans.

“Overseas Pakistanis are strongly advised NOT to invest based on social media marketing, overseas seminars or payment plans without verification from RDA.”

A large number of overseas investors fall victim to illegal housing schemes every year. Before investing, always verify the approval status directly through official RDA channels.

RDA Disclaimer

The Rawalpindi Development Authority has officially stated that it will not be responsible for any financial loss arising from investment in this illegal or unapproved scheme.

“Ignorance of this public notice shall not be accepted as an excuse in future.”
