KARACHI: Authorities have concluded their first day of the anti-encroachment drive along Mehmoodabad nullah removing impediments, structures on about seven-and-a-half-kilometer area, ARY News reported.


The extended and encroached areas and walls of houses and shops were either cleared away or demolished by the anti-encroachment drive.

Calling it a day today, the authorities underscored they will continue the operation for four days straight in collaboration with Karachi Municipal Corporation and other relevant offices
.

It may be noted that earlier last month, Chief Minister Sindh Murad Ali Shah chaired a Karachi Coordination Committee session to contemplate development projects and drainage infrastructure of the metropolis.

The session deliberated over various nullahs across Karachi wherein the CM said they have asked NED University to study and survey all the important lines for remodeling.

The remodeling based on the study would mean the Nullah would be able to drain inundation by 270mm within 12 hours, CM briefed the session today.

However, the CM said if the remodeling has to be materialized, it will require razing about 319 structures that have been build around them as encroachment of dedicated land.

The nullah has a six-meter depth at the Korangi road at the moment and for its remodelling according to NED study, we’ll have to bulldoze 319 structures built on its land, CM said.

KARACHI: In the drive to remove illegal encroachments and impediments from nullahs and rain drains, the local government has Tuesday announce to move the operations to Gujjar Nullah as well while it continues to wreck structures on Mehmoodabad Nullah, ARY News reported.


The study model of how to develop Gujjar Nullah channels on the advanced lines has been furnished with minimum removal of constructions around them. Instead of removing 150 feet adjoining the nullah, the authorities are only removing 30 feet and have begun marking the region.

It may be noted that in the earlier drives, the markings were extended to 105 feet area contiguous with the nullah which meant 8000 built structures would be razed along the way.
Now with this new design, about 50 per cent of the structures will be saved from being dismantled.


The operation is set to begin from the early days of next month and it’s decided to construct boundary walls, footpath, and the streets across the nullas as well.

On various places, the nullah channels will be restructured and straightened up to speed the water stream as well while other than making them deeper and broader, the sewers and will be cleaned of chocking as well.
It was said that at various points, the nullah will be broadened to 60- to 80 feet.

gujjar nullah anti-encroachment operation


KARACHI: In a bid to restore Karachi’s Gujjar Nullah to its original shape, the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) is all set to launch an anti-encroachment operation today to clear illegal structures on the banks of the storm water drain.

A strategy has been devised to raze all the structures built along the Gujjar Nullah during the “grand operation.”


The police, Rangers, Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) and revenue board officials will be present at the site.
Earlier, Karachi Central’s deputy commissioner wrote letters to the anti-encroachment cell, police, rangers, officials of SSGC and K-Electric in this regard. The deputy commissioner also sought heavy machinery and security for the grand operation.

Sources said that the original breadth of Gujjar Nala was 210 feet and it will be restored to its original design.

On Saturday, the administration had launched an anti-encroachment drive on the outskirts of Karachi and pulled down dozens of farmhouses reportedly owned by PTI leader Haleem Adil Shaikh, who termed the action as a “personal attack” for his “outspoken and fearless” campaign against alleged corruption of the PPP.
