The amnesty scheme will apply to all illegal domestic structures which were built before 2015. ReutersAn amnesty scheme for illegal domestic structures, launched by the Rawalpindi Cantonment Board, has been extended until October 31, while the civic body has waived off fines for owners of the illegal residential buildings. A building constructed without an approved building plan is considered unauthorised and the penalty to regularise it multiplies every year. A Rawalpindi Cantonment Board (RCB) spokesperson said that the cantonment board had offered an amnesty scheme to people to get their buildings regularised by acquiring a building plan, that too without having to pay any penalty. The amnesty scheme will apply to all illegal domestic structures which were built before 2015, he added.
