The Defence Housing Authority (DHA) Karachi is undertaking a two week registration campaign from July 29 to record the details of all the houses and commercial units located in the housing authority.
A DHA official said on Sunday that the registration process was meant to maintain a data base to help in improving the overall security environment in the area.
He further stated that the housing and commercial units in DHA would be registered along with the essential details of their owners and occupants, including the information of the servants and employees working/residing in these units. Foreign consulates located in the area would only be required to furnish details of the local employees working there.
The DHA official pointed out that a large number of teams have been constituted for this purpose.
The extensive exercise would entail door-to-door visits from the official team in the designated areas. In the first phase, the team members would distribute printed registration forms and subsequently collect the duly filled forms with relevant data back after two days. The team members would have proper identification cards issued by the DHA.
Preparations for launching the registration campaign have been completed.
The data provided would be kept confidential and would not be used for any other purpose.
DHA Administrator Brig Muhammad Abdullah had described the initiation of registration campaign as a significant step towards creating better security environment inside DHA.
He had asked the residents to extend their maximum support and cooperation in making the campaign a success.
