limo asked on Tuesday, September 29, 2009 02:22 PM PST
Dear Hussain Kaisrani, i appreciate your prompt reply. No power outages in Bahria, its an info and really unbelieveable.
Just one point left, Dr. Usman, having a plot in Sector-C has been asked for possession charges by 30th october 2009 otherwise he will be charged a fine @1.5% of remaining dues.
But Sector - B plot holders have no remaining dues, any idea how Bahria is going to charge them for not taking possession.It would be nice to hear from some Sector - B plot holder, who has received notice of such kind.
Thanks again Kaisrani bhai

Dear limo,
Thanks for your kind words brother!
Bahria Town Lahore will charge to its Sector B members for not taking the possession when either they transfer (sell) their plot or request for possession. Until now there is no surcharge on this monthly amount.

Dear Hanan,
Though I never said that Bahria Town Lahore is building two separate roads from Lahore Canal (not Multan Road) linking to Sector C but I strongly believe that it will do so as there is no reason to use (present) Khayabane Iftikhar (Executive Lodges Road) for all of its sectors or projects.
These links are:

1. The road in between Overseas Enclave and Gulmaher Block
2. The road after Janiper Block near to under construction Islamic Center.

I have no doubt that Bahria Town Lahore will have direct link with Multan Road Lahore but not yet reached to any conclusion of its route. In one of the meeting Malik Riaz claimed that Bahria Town Lahore is only 50% on ground and my vision of its shape, size and facility is still hidden. His wordings were Aagay Aagay Daikhiay Hota Hai Kia. Lets wait and see.

Dear Regards,
1200 rupees are charged upto 10 Marla house. Meaning whether a house is 5 Marla, 7 Marla, 8 Marla or 10 Marla the monthly charges will be Rs.1,200/=
For 1 Kanal it is Rs.2,000/= per month. Hope It is clear now.

Why does Bahria Town Lahore charge per month from its residants

In the start (2005-2006) Bahria Town Lahore used to give detail of this monthly charges when the amount per month was Rs.700/= In 2007 they increased the amount to Rs.1,000/= per month and removed full detail. Since last month they increased the amount to Rs.1,200/=. Hope you know that every community has its residants association which manages few common things of mutual interest for the betterment of residents and charge some amount on monthly basis. BahriaTown is economical from all other societies but providing more facilities. Though Bahria Town has not officially provided a complete list of services against this monthly amount but to me these are as follows:
1. Security
2. Cleanliness of Roads and garbage collection twice a day.
3. Water bill
4. Water filtration plant
5. Free transport as per Bahria Schedule
6. Street Lights
7. Parks. Gardening related matters outside of home boudary specifically and inside the homes boundary (on request in Safari Villas) in general.
9. Air conditioned and best maintained Masajid arrangements
8. Fire Brigade (which also helps to throw water in water tank of homes if due to some problem water is not available)
9. 24 hour maintenance service
10. 24 hour ambulance service and emergency treatment (on Rs.50/= fee to avoid unnecessary rush)
12. Celebrations on national days, Musical programs and other recreational activities
13. In short you name it they have it. And Bahria does not charge for all these items other than Rs.1200/= per month.
----
Bahria Town Lahore has no problem of power any more. They have developed the system by spending millions Rupees. Generators back up is now an old story. Bahria Town Lahore has its own dedicated Grid Station. I have not seen any power shutdown (for a minute) other than some technical fault during last few months. May be it seems unbelievable but it is true.
----
As question was asked about Bahria Town Sector C so I remained in it. Otherwise it is equally true for other sectors of Bahria Town Lahore. Bahria Town charges Rs.500/= as a security when plot is ready to construct a home and the owner does not take possession. Thanks to Dr Usman for making the matter more clear.

Monthly Charges in Bahria Town Lahore and Possession of a plot

Jameel

Hussain Kaisrani Sahib, would you give detail what Bahria Town Lahore administration is charging per month from Kanal, 10 Merla and 8 Merla Houses, At the same time pls tell about water electricity and Gas rates.
Please also clarify if there is difference in these rates in Safari Villas and sector B self built houses.

Dr Usman replied on Saturday, September 26, 2009 12:58 AM PST

Dear Hussain kaisrani sahib is there any draw back or is it SAFE if I dont take possession of my plot in sector c which is an on ground plot with all dues clear except possession charges.
Regards

Salaam!
Bahria Town Lahore is charging per month from ALL of Bahria Town residents as follows:

upto 10 Marla = Rs.12,00/= (It remained Rs.1,000/= during last three years)
Upto 1 Kanal = Rs.2,000/=
Upto 2 Kanal = Rs.3,000/=
From above 2 Kanal = Rs.4,500/=

Bahria Town is not charging for water until now. Gas bills are not under Bahria Town controls. For electricity they are charging flat rate of Rs.9 per unit. Bahria Town Lahore has full control on electricity so we are not facing outage of power any more.

These rates are same for all Bahria residents including Safari Villas Lahore.

Dr. Usman Sahib!

Generally there is no draw back if you do not take possession of your plot in Sector C. Its recommended that you should take possession of your plot if you can manage to pay possession charges and not interested to sell it in near future. In Bahria Town policy the only PERMANENT factor is CHANGE. They may increase possession charges or can announce any extra surcharge to whom who have still not got possession. For a safety point of view there is no need to worry. Its equally safe when you got possession letter but the final document from Bahria is possession letter or site plan.

Awami Villas Lahore Bahria Town Master Plan

At last Bahria Town Management has issued Villa numbers to its Awami Villas members. As expected Bahria Town CHANGED the location of these villas which is now very far away from Lahore. Technically it may be a part of Lahore but practically its Raiwind.

The master plan of Awami Villas project is being reproduced here for general information. The member may check the result by clicking here.
