PESHAWAR: In a significant move to streamline urban development, the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has approved a comprehensive plan to regularize unapproved building structures across the province. The decision was finalized during a high-level meeting chaired by senior officials in Peshawar.
According to officials, the new policy will allow owners of residential and commercial properties constructed without formal approval to legalize their buildings upon payment of prescribed fees and compliance with safety standards. The initiative is expected to bring thousands of irregular structures into the tax net while ensuring adherence to building codes.

Authorities stated that the plan will be implemented in coordination with the Peshawar Development Authority and other regional development bodies. Special facilitation desks will be set up to guide citizens through the documentation and verification process.
Officials emphasized that the regularization drive will not apply to buildings constructed on encroached state land or those posing serious safety risks. Strict action will continue against illegal constructions violating zoning laws.
The government believes the initiative will not only enhance revenue generation but also promote planned urban growth and improve civic infrastructure. Citizens have been encouraged to submit applications within the announced timeframe to benefit from the scheme.
