Uttara plot allotment
It is very heartening to hear that the caretaker government is making all out efforts to undo the irregularities associated with allotment of plots in Rajuk's 3rd phase of Uttara. It has already cancelled allotment of plots that were found to be allotted beyond lawful means by the previous government. I would like to urge the present government to consider the following while re-allotting the plots in Uttara:
1.Give preference to those applicants who were not considered last time and who have not withdrawn the application money from Rajuk.
2.Applicants who have genuine white money (as per income tax records and, if necessary, through another assessment by an appropriate government agency such as the NBR) and who can pay off the entire cost of the plot at a time should be given preference.
3.Applicants belonging to the private sector were given much less preference in allotment last time compared to applicants belonging to government service. Since the number of private applicants is substantial, there should be a reasonable quota for them.
Through this column, I would request the Advisor to the caretaker government in-charge of Housing and Public Works to kindly look into the matter and do justice to the applicants (including those from the private sector) who were not considered last time.
