\nThe administration said strict implementation of standard operating procedures was underway to prevent encroachments, improve cleanliness and ensure smooth traffic flow. Citizens were urged not to rebuild illegal structures and to cooperate in keeping the city clean and organised.
\nIn Nowshera, operations are continuing in markets across all three tehsils under the directions of the governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the deputy commissioner.
