ISLAMABAD: This is with reference to a report by APP in your newspaper on October 6 on high-rise government apartments in Section G-13. As a resident of this sector, I share the fears expressed by the unnamed CDA official quoted in the report, who said that the existing infrastructure will not be able to cope with thousands of additional households.
Moreover, does it make sense to build a building 16 storeys high in an area known for seismic activity?
