F.P. Report
KARACHI: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has directed the authorities to continue the anti-encroachment operation in Karachi, on Tuesday.
As the hearing underway, Supreme court bench heard the case at the Karachi registry regarding the removal of encroachment and reviving the provincial capital, the bench directed the Sindh chief secretary to supervise the anti-encroachment operation and ensure cooperation and consultation among relevant departments and organizations.
The bench has ordered to remove all the encroachment from the city including from Bagh Ibn-e-Qasim.
Justice Mushir Alam remarked that restaurants and businesses were established on small plots. He said the abundance of encroachments had left no place for walking in streets.
He regretted that the Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA)’s job was to bring the city into its real shape, which it did not do.
Last month on January 24, the Supreme Court had directed the Sindh government to furnish a comprehensive plan within two weeks elucidating measures to restore Karachi to its original shape.
The court had also sought a master plan of the city enacted after 1950.
During hearing to review implementation of court orders for removal of encroachments at SC’s Karachi Registry, Justice Gulzar Ahmed of the apex court had expressed resentment for ‘ruining’ of city’s infrastructure.
