ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has to face financial crunch after the local government elections in the federal capital as the authority will have to transfer its several departments to the new local government.
The CDA will be stripped of the Enforcement Directorate, Building Control Section, Health, Water Management, PMO, Planning and Design, Solid Waste Management, water treatment plants, sanitation, municipal services, fire brigade and several other departments.

Sources said that it will be very difficult for the authority to bear salaries of its employees if it were deprived of revenue collection and other revenue earning departments. The source further said that the CDA will have no option but to either send its employees to the metropolitan corporation or resort to downsizing to manage its affairs within the available source of income and budget.
The metropolitan corporation will also oversee the development work, issuance of contracts and other uplift projects.
