Mr Tai said the cost of good quality construction has s<a href=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/high-cost-construction-materials-make-low-cost-housing-impossible\/\">oared to Rs 7,000 per sq ft from Rs4,500 one and half years back due to the main<\/a> role of steel bars and cement prices. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rising-construction-prices-MS-1024x570.jpg\" alt=\"steel cement\" class=\"wp-image-4782\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rising-construction-prices-MS-1024x570.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rising-construction-prices-MS-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rising-construction-prices-MS-768x428.jpg 768w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rising-construction-prices-MS.jpg 1094w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/high-cost-construction-materials-make-low-cost-housing-impossible\/\">High-cost Construction Materials make Low-cost Housing Impossible<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Steel manufacturers have persistently been jacking up the rates citing costly scrap on world markets and a shortage of raw materials in the local market. The Chairman said manufacturers of steel bars are making windfall profit in absence of any regulatory check by the government. He also opined as per the current iron and steel scrap rate of $470 per ton including taxes and duties on imports and @ Rs270 per US Dollar, the steel bar rate should not cross Rs 250,000 per ton. Besides, he claimed there is another option to bring finished steel bars from Iran in just 10 days under barter trade which would cost Rs 225,000-230,000 per ton.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DHA Sewage Treatment at SeaView<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While hearing a petition by the World Wide Fund for Nature and some other NGOs, filed in 2017 against dumping of sewage and industrial waste into the sea, the Cantonment Board Clifton has informed the Sindh High Court that a sewage treatment plant (STP) has been installed at Seaview to treat the wastewater before discharge into the sea. The petitioners had informed the SHC that the sea was being polluted by the sewage at Seaview near the Chunky Monkey amusement park and a fast food outlet. The bench headed by Justice Aqeel Ahmed Abbasi directed the officials of the Sindh Environmental Protection Agency to be in attendance on Feb 27 to assistant the court on the subject issue.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"896\" height=\"671\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Highrise-Construction-at-Seafront.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3728\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Highrise-Construction-at-Seafront.jpg 896w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Highrise-Construction-at-Seafront-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Highrise-Construction-at-Seafront-768x575.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 896px) 100vw, 896px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The CBC in its report stated that the Defence Housing Authority had constructed a sewage treatment plant (Kublai Khan STP) at Abdul Sattar Edhi Avenue in April 2021 and the sump pump operating at the same place releasing untreated water into the sea had been pulled down. It maintained that the capacity of the STP was two million gallon per day (MGD) and the current flow into the plant was 0.40 MGD. In order to utilise its maximum capacity, the CBC was going to complete a sewerage line by March 31 connecting Sewerage Pumping Station (SPS-I Saba Cross, Muhafiz) and SPS-2 (26th Cross Muhafiz) Phase-VI with SPS-8, Phase-V, which would release sewage having flow of 1.50 MGD in the STP and ultimately the sea would take treated sewage of these pumping stations. However, the CBC conceded that it had outsourced the sanitation mechanism through conservancy contractors, but the system could not give desired results and now the board was itself providing such services and also upgraded its existing capacity by procuring new machinery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meeting of Housing &amp; Works Committee<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The 24th meeting of the Standing Committee on Housing and Works of the National Assembly held this week under the Chairmanship of MNA Muhammad Junaid Anwar Chaudhary.

As in a grand Jirga meeting consisting of political leaders, tribal elders, elected representatives of local councils, growers and the people of Balochistan`s Gwadar, Lasbela and Hub districts, the participants\u00a0 declared that they would not allow leasing out of the \u201cland of their ancestors\u201d to anyone. Speakers said that in the past, 75,000 acres of land had been allotted to a powerful institution along the coastal highway, but with the cooperation of people, they succeeded in getting that allotment cancelled. They also vowed not allow the people`s lands to be used by Arab rulers for hunting purposes when an attempt had been made to take over land in Sakran in the name of a special economic zone.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"664\" height=\"336\" src=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cement-and-Environment.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3787\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cement-and-Environment.jpg 664w, https:\/\/infocus.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cement-and-Environment-300x152.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">   <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It needs to mention that last year Thatta Cement Company had applied for allotment of land at two places for their cement factories, which has been processed according to the rules and approved.

The other site, where demarcation of land has also been completed in favour of the same company, covers an area of 143.50sq-km (3,461.8 acres) in district Lasbela.
