Monday, 4 May 2009
FE Report
State Minister for Housing and Public Works Advocate Abdul Mannan Khan Sunday pledged to allot the new Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk) plots to the allotees in the shortest possible time maintaining transparency and accountability.
"I will complete the process of plot allotment in two months," the minister told the FE Sunday.
He said the lottery for allotting plots at the Extended Uttara (third Phase) and Purbachal New Town projects would be conducted in a transparent manner.
The applicants would also be able to withdraw their deposited money within the shortest possible time, Mr Khan assured.
"Handing over the plots to the allotees would be completed immediately after completion of the development works, which is going on in full swing," he said.
The state minister for housing and public works was talking to the FE exclusively on the closing day of the submission of applications for the Rajuk plots on April 30, 2009.
"We received a total of 108,000 applications for Rajuk new plots until March 28, 2009," Rajuk Member (Estate) SM Abdul Wahab Miah told the FE Sunday.
Applications submitted with the banks on the last two days - March 29 and March 30, 2009 -- are yet to reach Rajuk, he said.
But the total number of submissions might be around 150,000 as the rush of the applicants was heavy on the last two days, another senior Rajuk official predicted.
Apart from Tk 1,000 against application form, the applicants deposited Tk 75,000 for a three-katha plot, while Tk 100,000 for a five-katha, Tk 150,000 for a seven and a half katha and Tk 200,000 for a 10-katha plot for both the projects.
The expatriates deposited $ 1,500 for a three-katha plot, while $2000 for a five-katha, $2,500 for a seven and a half katha and $3,500 for a 10-katha plot.
Rajuk closed the submission of applications for the Extended Uttara (third Phase) and Purbachal New Town projects last week after receiving applications from November 2008.
Dr Fakhruddin Ahmed-led caretaker government started distributing applications to the aspirants against 8,500 plots for allotment in the Extended Uttara (third Phase) and Purbachal New Town projects, some 20 kilometers off the capital.
