The Ministry of Housing and Works has launched an operation against illegal occupants in the Federal Lodges and Gulshan-e-Jinnah.
According to sources, three cases of illegal occupation in Gulshan-e-Jinnah had come to the ministry’s attention and action had been taken against them. Residents who had not paid their rent had been served notices and strict action would be taken against defaulters, the sources added.
The ministry wrote a letter to the Public Works Department (PWD) for the renovation and maintenance of Federal Lodges in Gulshan-e-Jinnah and Fatima Hostel. It stated that the condition of these buildings was not up to the mark, the sources said. The ministry asked PWD to renovate and redecorate the buildings and change the old furniture.
