Wedding halls near Five Star Chowrangi being demolished during an anti-encroachment operation conducted by the KMC on Friday.—Online
KARACHI: The Karachi Metropolitan Corporation on Friday demolished and sealed four wedding lawns constructed illegally on as many amenity plots allotted decades ago for other purposes.

One of the wedding halls was owned by Muttahida Qaumi Movement leader Babar Ghauri, whose party condemned the action and blamed Local Government Minister Sharjeel Memon for “victimising” MQM leaders and workers on the pretext of an anti-encroachment drive.

Sources said that these plots had been allotted three to four decades back and were being misused for over a quarter of a century.

A KMC spokesperson told Dawn that Administrator Saqib Soomro in exercise of powers of the City Council conferred on him through a government’s notification dated Dec 7, 2011 allowed the KMC and defunct KDA on March 30 to cancel the lease of all such amenity plots which were not being used for the purposes for which they had been allotted.

They said that Mr Ghauri’s Florence Marriage Lawn in North Nazimabad’s Block H was built on an amenity plot, ST 2, which was originally allotted to Dr Abdul Jamil Khan on Dec 8, 1964 for the construction of a hospital to provide medical treatment to the poor and deserving patients.

They said that on Jan 5, 1993 the amenity plot was transferred to Mr Ghauri, Khurshid Ahmed and Ms Badri Sadri by Dr Khan.

The defunct Karachi Development Authority (KDA) had issued show-cause notices regarding the transfer of the plot and repeatedly warned the beneficiaries that the said plot could only be used for the construction of a hospital. However no heed was paid to the KDA’s warnings in the years to come.

On Friday, the KMC’s anti-encroachment department demolished the marriage hall and other construction on it and took possession of the plot.

Civic Marriage Lawn

In 1970, a 1937-square-yard plot in Gulshan-i-Iqbal was allotted to Dr Nusrat Aziz for the construction of a hospital in five years. However Dr Aziz failed to do so following which the KDA cancelled his rights on the plot on Feb 7, 1982. He had appointed Brig Jamil as his special attorney, who on Dec 2, 1997 allowed builders to start construction works with the endorsement of the Pakistan Embassy in Washington DC.

When the KDA began to take action against the illegality committed in relation with the use of the amenity plot, the attorney filed a case in court and the court issued a show-cause notice on the construction of the Civic Marriage Lawn on the amenity plot.

The sources said that Brig Jamil was repeatedly warned to stop commercial activities on the plot, which was allotted for public welfare purpose but he did not pay any attention to these notices.

Junagarh Lawn

In 1978, the KDA had allotted a 4,000-square-yard plot (ST 2-1 and 2C) to the Junagarh State Federation for public welfare purposes. But the federation did not use these plots for public welfare and constructed wedding lawns on it.

The KDA had issued various show-cause notices in 1994 to them and warned them to stop commercial activities on the said plot but the federation never paid any heed to it.

Faran Club

In 1975, the civic agency had allotted the 2,000-square-yard plots (ST 1A and 1B) to the Faran Club International for the promotion of social and cultural activities.

The Faran Club also violated the rules and regulations and various show-cause notices were issued to them but no action was taken.

MQM condemns ‘discriminatory’ action

The MQM coordination committee condemned the demolition of wedding lawns of its office-bearers and workers on the pretext of an anti-encroachment drive under LG minister Sharjeel Memon.

In a statement issued on Friday, it said that minister Memon was demolishing wedding lawns that were started over 25 to 30 years ago by fulfilling all legal requirements.

It said that even wedding lawns established on private properties were being demolished which make it evident that the entire exercise was partial and discriminatory.

Its looks nice to clean up , the illegal constructed commercial beneficial buildings by political personalities , but the question is does it only happens in Karachi ?
& what about rest of sindh & whole Pakistan ?
Why our LEAs & other govt agencies only working against their political opponents but not against the whole mafia all over Pakistan ?
Will it brings justice & sense of paractising law & order to rest of Pakistan or its just meant to victimized the ones you don't like ?
ops in Karachi should become broad based as fast as it can , cause if not we are heading for a big crash inviting our enemies to feul the fire .

Justice should be equal , ruthless, & not be based on likes & dislikes ?

There should be no discrimination, anything encroached or illegally constructed must be brought down to ground, income tax be recovered and heavy fines/punishment be imposed for depriving public of their right. It should be spread all over the country with no exemptions.

I think PPP will start feeling heat once some sniffing and pricking will happen towards sea side of Shara e Faisal.

it's only happening in Karachi because it is the city where 90% of this kind of crap happens.
and Sharjeel Memon is the only somewhat efficient minister in PPP. it's not central govt's responsibility to raze marriage halls, thats the work of town administration.
and maybe you can't read but only 1 belonging to babar ghauri was demolished rest others were simply illegal
and even if it did have political association how does it make a difference if it was demolished?
you are just as brainwashed as that fellow Gazi

Like super nonsensical kid , you always are ?
Karachi is just a tiny part of the huge sea of illegal constructions all over the country ?
do you know how Mr MALIK RIAZ operates ?
Who was he 20 years before ?
Guess you were never been to Islamabad , & you don't even know how it spread in what time ?
Even in Lahore , poor chirstain small abadis been targeted for land grabing , Multan was on the loot sale ?
Gujranwala , faislabad , Peshawar its every where , political leaders , judges , other high civil servants all are involved in it ?
With that said , do you know just few days before sherjeel memoon was questioned by RANGERS of his involvement in gang war leadership ?
Uzair baloch has named him the high level contact with billawal house on whom he was doing the killing for ?
You looks like stupid dumb , kid who just finished from some high school , who thinks that whole Pakistan is made of gold while Karachi from cement ?
Stop this one sided approach , think from your own mind ?
I started this thread because I thought its a opportunity for others to become more knowlwdgble about the cancer killing whole Pakistan ?
Also , in 2015 there no way to target a tiny community because of its some illegal activities while closing our eyes from the mountain of the mess ?
It can result us , very very grave impact , specially when global settings are about to get changed ?
In this country we all are Pakistanis , no one is better then the others , no one is above the law ?
If there is a real just law with equality for all criminals either living on the mountains or in the desserts .
Stop of being over emotional on MQM , its there either we like it or not , cause it the reality ?
Cleaning up the mess & the criminals is the job of state but tearing it up for political gains its a conspiracy , which no one is interested .
Pakarmy is not interested creating in another haqiqi but its rather not ready to see automatic weapons in the hands of educated youth of Karachi .

There should be no discrimination, anything encroached or illegally constructed must be brought down to ground, income tax be recovered and heavy fines/punishment be imposed for depriving public of their right. It should be spread all over the country with no exemptions.

Thanks , alibaz
Yes as a real patriots , we should think equally for all Pakistanis , & crimes & criminals there should be equal justice all around Pakistan .
Its been still in waiting , the heat against some one else other then MQM in karachi ?
Cause its been the danger , if it not go around to other political.parties & thier criminals in Karachi this operation is going to be used for anti Pakistan prapoganda by lot of elements including BLA ?
peoples has started asking questions , what is stopping govt to bring UZAIR BALOUCH back to pakistan ?
Right now zardari is playing dangerous game , if anytime LEAs go against PPP , he will act or impose himself as the ultimate Sindhi +balouch innocent supreme leader , who,s nation was struck by the fedralistic forces of punjab ?
BLA , can't sit next to him ?
& then he can push MQM with him ?
It can , turn out to be very very nasty situation in the changing middle Eastern scenario.
That's what made LEAs think so long to do what ?
& to whom ?

4 decades no one noticed a wedding hall where a hospital should be?! :o:

Talk about ignorance this is a new level!

The MQM coordination committee condemned the demolition of wedding lawns of its office-bearers and workers on the pretext of an anti-encroachment drive under LG minister Sharjeel Memon.
Are they stupid? I thought MQM was about community's well being how is wedding halls better than hospitals and community centers?

Just imagine it,
& its just opened up because Mr sharjeel memon is trying to save his a$$$ , from LEAs pressure who , wanted to catch him whenever they can bring UZAIR BALOUCH back ?
But just think of whole country , its the same , & we the peoples should be united against our likes or dislikes for any illegal activity all across Pakistan .

Friend , its also not the solution cause these crouptors has made this nation so poor that its ready to sell their own kids ?
It all needs a brutal but just leadership , which comes in a uniform , crash all of it , hang all of them & rest will be in the right track for sure .
I believe only that way ?lolzz
Even though sometimes they think , I support PTI & sometimes MQM or TUQ ?
all of these parties has some new ideas , something for common man in Pakistan but still all of them are croupted or made systematic criminals , or even thrown out with brutality ?
