ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Additional Attorney General Nayyar Abbas Rizvi on Tuesday has submitted Capital Development Authority (CDA) report over unplanned structures in Bani Gala in Supreme Court (SC).

During the hearing, Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar said that the owners have to pay off the fines for their illegal constructions as the fee has also been reduced, he remarked.

Earlier, the top judge had directed the premier to set an example for others by becoming the first one to pay fine for regularization of his Bani Gala land.

Imran Khan raised this issue and now when he has become Prime Minister of Pakistan, everything is in his hands, he added.

CJP had also ordered the committee to cancel lease of the companies who fail to fulfill the rules.

Furthermore, SC had ordered the concerned authorities to demolish illegal constructions in surroundings of Nala Korang, Bani Gala, following the recommendations of Survey of Pakistan (SP).

Additional Attorney General said that Nala Korang was full of garbage due to which its water flow was stopped.
