Encroachment drive

Published September 12, 2019

THE Supreme Court’s orders to remove illegal encroachments in Lea Market in Lyari have not been implemented despite the passage of a year since the directives were issued.

The residents of Lyari invite the authorities’ attention to the complete chaos and traffic congestion which causes immense hardships and inconvenience to people living in the vicinity.

The residents request the anti-encroachment cell to remove the encroachments from this area immediately.
