Directed federal and provincial governments to end encroachments within 3 days
ISLAMABAD - Supreme Court has issued a verdict to eradicate encroachment s from roads and footpaths across the nation, as detailed in the 'Karachi encroachment case' written verdict. The court directed the distribution of the judgment copy to the attorney general, advocate generals, and all government departments, while also instructing PEMRA to publish and broadcast public service messages on the matter.
According to the ruling, federal and provincial governments are mandated to clear encroachments within three days, with relevant departments also do so on the land mafia expenses. Additional attorney general, advocate general, and counsel of KMC have been tasked with submitting a report on the implementation progress. Expressing dismay over the prevalence of encroachments, the court emphasized the importance of unimpeded citizen movement, denouncing the placement of generators on roads and footpaths. The order firmly asserted the public's right to unhindered access to movement, highlighting the burden borne by taxpayers in funding governmental expenses. The order mantioned that the additional attorney General and advocate general of Sindh cited barricades and dodges as preventive measures against terrorist attacks. However, the court dismissed claims of private ownership over public spaces and gardens surrounding buildings, affirming their status as communal property.
