While Dr Anila Naeem said that abandoned and vacant properties should not be left to the ad hoc whims of the market and that there was a need for framing proper policies for their appropriate usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Judiciary Concerns\u2019 on Reko Diq Groundwater<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Deeply concerned about the level of groundwater in Baluchistan, the Supreme Court questioned what adverse effects large-scale mining at the Reko Diq site could have on the groundwater level, as it is already scarce and fast depleting in Balochistan due to lack of rains. During the hearing of a presidential reference on the Reko Diq project, Justice Ijazul Ahsan , however, observes \u201cThis is just a thought that since the present mining operation is a water-intensive exercise and the ore after excavation would be crushed into powder and mixed with water before being sent through a slurry pipeline to the port\u201d. He wondered fromwhere this water would come when it was already scarce in Balochistan and huge quantities would be used daily.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"542\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater-1024x542.jpg\" alt=\"World Water Day\" class=\"wp-image-4801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater-1024x542.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater-768x407.jpg 768w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater-1536x813.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Groundwater.jpg 1881w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Groundwater; The Hidden Source of Life\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>In a hearing this week, Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Umar Ata Bandial, who headed the five-judge bench, observed that one could imagine the wastage of water since so much water would be used in the project, adding that aquifers should not be depleted. Additional Attorney General Chaudhry Aamir Rehman said he would come with the required information later, but insisted that water was available at the site and large water reservoirs would be built for its preservation. The court, however, asked Additional Attorney General to come up with alternative solutions, at which the law officer said that he would look into the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FBR extends Property Income Filing Date<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has announced this week to extend the last date for submission of details of property income till December 31, 2022. The FBR issued a notification in with a draft amendment to the Income Tax Rules 2002, which said that along with information about income, a form will also have to be submitted in which the details of income earned from the property will be recorded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"938\" height=\"528\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Property-Tax-CLICK.jpg\" alt=\"Karachi\" class=\"wp-image-5096\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Property-Tax-CLICK.jpg 938w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Property-Tax-CLICK-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Property-Tax-CLICK-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Time to Devolve Karachi Property Tax Collection <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The FBR said that due to the ambiguity in the previous law, the new law was introduced, under which the form of income from the property was fixed separately and it would be submitted every year along with the filing of their tax returns. According to officials, this law was introduced under Section E of the Revenue Tax Ordinance 2001. Under the law, those who have submitted annual tax returns will also be obliged to submit details of income earned from property before December 31, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">KDA\u2019 New Affordable Housing Scheme<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The Karachi Development Authority (KDA) has reportedly decided&nbsp;to launch a 25-story &#8220;People&#8217;s Sky View&#8221; apartment project in Surjani Town as part of a low-cost housing scheme. The project will be introduced at Surjani Town&#8217;s Sector B-7 of KDA Scheme 41. The apartment complex will be the first low-cost housing project by the government in the area, accomodting three and four bedrooms with the modern urban amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"385\" height=\"131\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Affordable-Housing.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Affordable-Housing.jpg 385w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Affordable-Housing-300x102.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 385px) 100vw, 385px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>According to the sources, the project will include 7 towers with 1,700 apartments.&nbsp;&nbsp;A computerised ballot will be used to distribute the units, with renters receiving preference. The DG of KDA told the media that the project will be started and finished for Karachi citizens once it has been approved. It is important to note that the KDA recently launched a significant operation against land infringers in Surjani Town, which resulted in the recovery of thousands of plots from infringers.<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>27 November, 2022 Land Misuse in Karachi \u201cKarachi`s land use, in spite of plans&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5309,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34,321],"tags":[74,79,98,40,163,65,296,267,295],"class_list":["post-5308","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-weekly-briefs","tag-affordable-houing","tag-environs-karachi","tag-fbr","tag-infocus","tag-infocus-weekly-briefs","tag-karachi","tag-kda","tag-land-misuse","tag-reko-diq"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Karachi Land Misuse to Reko Diq Groundwater Concerns; Infocus Weekly Briefs - Infocus<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Karachi Land Misuse to Reko Diq Groundwater Concerns; Infocus Weekly Briefs FBR Property Income KDA Affordable Housing\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/?p=5308\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Karachi Land Misuse to Reko Diq Groundwater Concerns; Infocus Weekly Briefs - Infocus\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Karachi Land Misuse to Reko Diq Groundwater Concerns; Infocus Weekly Briefs FBR Property Income KDA Affordable Housing\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/?p=5308\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Infocus\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-11-26T23:59:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-02-03T18:42:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Weekly-Briefs-27-Nov-22.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1027\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"591\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"M.
