The Metropolitan Corporation of Islamabad has decided to establish six cattle markets in the city, comprising three large and three small ones.
The larger markets will be located in Sangjani, I-15, and I-12, while the smaller ones will be set up at Bhara Kahu, Sultana Foundation, and Islamabad Expressway.
These markets will operate from the 1st to the 13th of Zil Hajj. A fee of Rs. 500 will be charged for large animals and Rs. 250 for small animals.
An open auction for cattle markets is scheduled for May 9 at the Directorate Municipal Administration (DMA) office.
Previously, the details regarding the central market for sacrificial animals in Karachi were shared by the administration. For this year’s cattle market for sacrificial animals, an area of 1000 acres at Taisar Town Northern Bypass has been allocated.
CDA always use I-12 and these locations, despite spending single penny for the development of these sites, I-12 is CDA sector and stalled for more than 35 years, hope CDA and officials will also think on its development now.
