A delegation of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) today met RAJUK chairman Anisur Rahman Miah to discuss about the effectiveness of Detailed Area Plan (DAP) to build a planned habitat and developed capital.
FBCCI senior vice president Mostafa Azad Chowdhury Babu led the FBCCI delegation during the meeting at the RAJUK office while FBCCI standing committee co-chairman on real estate and housing affairs Liakat Ali Bhuiyan Milon was present, among others, in the meeting.
During the meeting, Babu thanked the RAJUK authorities for incorporating various plans in the new DAP for ensuring civic amenities for the city dwellers.
He said since DAP is a detailed plan, its formulation is very tough alongside its implementation.
In this regard, the FBCCI senior vice president urged the RAJUK to associate with Real Estate and Housing Association of Bangladesh (REHAB) to formulate the master plan to ensure a sustainable and livable capital, restructuring the RAJUK Board with skilled and experienced technical members, incorporating area-wise data and information in the DAP, increasing floor area ratio, specifying timeframe for availing designs, formulating rules and regulations on real estate.
Babu said that such proposals were framed earlier following widespread discussions with the real estate businessmen, city planners, architectures and other stakeholders.
The RAJUK chairman said that all the designs received before August 23, 2022 would be given approval as per the previous rules while decision on the developers, who have signed registered agreements with the land owners before August 23, 2022, would be taken in consultation with the higher authority.
RAJUK city planner Md Ashraful Islam said that efforts to amend the DAP would be taken later following detailed discussions for ensuring welfare to the city dwellers and the real estate industry.
