LAHORE
The district administration launched a major anti-encroachment operation across the city, resulting in the sealing of over 100 shops and removal of illegal structures from key commercial areas.
On the special instructions of Deputy Commissioner Lahore Syed Musa Raza, a large-scale drive aims to reclaim public spaces, improve pedestrian accessibility, and enhance the city’s overall urban landscape.
The operation was closely supervised by Chief Officer of Metropolitan Corporation Lahore (MCL) Shahid Abbas Kathia, while Metropolitan Officer Regulation Headquarters Kashif Jaleel led the field teams that executed the drive successfully. Prominent markets including Islampura, Anarkali, Moon Market, Samanabad, Faisal Town, and G-1 Market were targeted in the coordinated action.
During the operation, numerous encroachments on footpaths were demolished, allowing for smoother pedestrian movement and better accessibility.
