The ban will remain in effect until the final approval of RDA's Pre-Urban Site Development Plan.

Additionally, developers have been barred from subdividing land for investor-driven housing schemes without obtaining prior approval.
According to RDA sources, the Pre-Urban Site Development Plan will delineate agricultural areas, residential zones, green zones, and sensitive environmental regions.
Strict enforcement measures will be taken against those who violate the ban, including the imposition of hefty fines, legal action, and the demolition of unauthorised structures.
The authority's goal is to maintain a balance between urban development, environmental conservation, and natural resource protection.
The authority has committed to promoting eco-friendly residential construction, with a strong emphasis on protecting fertile agricultural land and sensitive ecological zones.
