Chairman NAB urged the people and regulators to play their due role in nabbing illegal housing societies/Cooperative Housing Societies. Media should also have a look on the legal position of the housing society whether it has sufficient land on ground, lay out plan has approved and NOC has been issued by the concerned Regulator as per law before airing/publishing any advertisements of housing societies. This is essential as some housing societies only exist in papers and vanish from the market after devouring billion of rupees of the innocent people.
