According to the Chairman, 300 private schools have been located and will be moved to new plots. Plots will be leased to private schools for a period of 33 years. Plots will be provided to the schools for a 10-year lease at a 55 percent discount from the DC rate. In order to prevent corrupt practices, the powers of the Building Control Inspectors are also being reduced. Building Control Wings will now be set up, each headed by an Assistant Director, to check homes and businesses for the approval of building plans and to stop unauthorized development. The CDA would seize amenities plots, such as cemeteries, schools, parks, playgrounds, etc., to guarantee layout plans are followed and to stop societies from doing so.
