ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has announced its plans to revise the layout plan for Sector D-12 and Blue Area in a board meeting presided over by Chairman CDA Amer Ali Ahmed.

The board was informed of a chunk of unutilised land, identified for the creation of 81 new plots of various sizes. The changes have been incorporated by the authority in the new plan for Sector D-12.
