Earlier this year, the Supreme Court had directed the provincial authorities to remove encroachments from all state land across the province.
An apex court bench, headed by Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed, had directed the Board of Revenue’s (BOR) senior member to place on record a report showing details of government land under encroachment and that retrieved from land-grabbers.
