Combating Encroachment: MCI Cancels Temporary Permissions for Use of Open Spaces in Islamabad

ISLAMABAD: The Metropolitan Corporation Islamabad (MCI) has taken measures to combat encroachment in the municipal limits of Islamabad by canceling temporary permissions granted to businessmen for using open spaces in various markets.

The decision was made by the MCI administrator, followed by a notification issued by the Directorate of Municipal Administration (DMA), which canceled all types of temporary permissions for outdoor seating arrangements, generators, chillers, car parking purposes, and more, with immediate effect.

As per the details, DMA published a public notice in national newspapers regarding the cancellation, and the Director General Enforcement of the Capital Development Authority (CDA) has been requested to conduct an operation against encroachments throughout the city.

Furthermore, the supporters of the notification stressed that open spaces were meant for public use and not for commercial purposes, and urged the enforcement directorate to clear all markets.

  2. Money if any charged by the MCI should be returned and any financial loss to the traders must be compansated for that.

  3. All such efforts made for the facilitation of Public are always lauded .well done and keep ensuring strict implementation at levels irrespective of the classes.😇

  4. This is the game played by former CDA officials who granted permission to use open space by shop keepers and now shop keepers have further auctioned these open spaces to hawkers infront of them.
    Itd very easy to allow shop keepers and hawkers to use open space but very difficult to remove them. Previouse PTI govt. Had ordered the same in G11 markaz which are now creating trouble for public facing difficulty to use foot path.
