Commercialisation

Published February 6, 2016

I AM a resident of Shaikh Mohalla, Larkana. Some bungalows and small houses in the area have been converted into shops. Even on main Jinnah Bagh Road they have constructed more than 40 such shops, which have encroached upon the road and have illegal electricity connections.

In one such house, they have established car rental offices and have parked cars all over the area.

I request the authorities concerned to take action against this unauthorised conversion of residential structures into shops, especially showrooms, motor workshops, etc.
