Dera Ismail Khan , Nov 29 (APP):On the directives of Commissioner DI Khan Zafar-ul-Islam Khattak, the anti-encroachment drive continued in Tehsil Dera on Saturday.
The operation was supervised by Assistant Commissioner Dera Syed Muhammad Arsalan, during which temporary and permanent encroachments from Fawara Chowk to Bannu Adda and the Saddar Bazaar were cleared, ensuring full restoration of road space.
Teams from AC Revenue, DSP Traffic, Tehsildar Dera, TMA staff, WSSC staff, revenue personnel and police participated in the operation.
The district administration initiated legal action against shopkeepers who had re-established encroachments at Circular Road and Imamia Gate.
The administration has strictly warned all shopkeepers not to place any goods, stalls or other obstacles outside their shops, as such practices cause severe traffic congestion and hinder the movement of the public. The officials reiterated that strict action would be taken in case of any violation.
