KARACHI:
The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday ordered authorities to restart work to widen Gujjar Nullahs and the Orangi Nullahs stormwater drains and dismissed the area residents' plea against the anti-encroachment drive and request for compensation.
A three-member bench of the apex court, led by the Chief Justice of Pakistan Gulzar Ahmed, heard the cases pertaining to illegal encroachments in the port city and the Karachi Circular Railway at the SC's Karachi Registry.
As the affectees of the Gujjar and Orangi Nullahs anti-encroachment operation protested outside the court premises and demanded a 'house for a house', the apex court annulled all restraining orders against the anti-encroachment drive.

Karachi
April 22, 2021
The provincial advocate general has told the Sindh High Court (SHC) that the provincial government has proposed building a 30-foot-wide road along the Gujjar and Orangi storm water drains in order to ensure that no further construction takes place on the right of way and that accessibility is improved.
Filing a statement on lawsuits with regard to the demolition of houses at Gujjar and Orangi nullahs, the AG submitted that the drains were natural drains and the right of way in respect of each was originally designated in pre-Partition times between 40 and 210 feet on either sides of the Gujjar drain and 20 to 300 feet on either side of the Orangi drain.
