ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court<\/a> (IHC) has <\/span>brought<\/span> relief to <\/span>wedding <\/span>hall<\/span> and <\/span>marquee<\/span> owners <\/span>in the federal capital by <\/span>restraining<\/span> the Capital Development Authority<\/a> (CDA) from taking punitive action against them. <\/span><\/p>\n

IHC Justice Inam Amin Minhas <\/span>issued<\/span> the order while hearing a petition <\/span>filed<\/span> by Ghulam Moeen-ul-Haq Gilani. <\/span><\/p>\n

The court <\/span>ordered<\/span> both <\/span>sides<\/span> to <\/span>file<\/span> para-wise comments <\/span>in<\/span> 15 days and <\/span>heard<\/span> the <\/span>case<\/span> on<\/span> May 21, 2025. <\/span>No action will be taken against the parties <\/span>concerned until the next hearing<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The petition was <\/span>called<\/span> in <\/span>reaction<\/span> to directives issued by the CDA on August 16, 2023, which the <\/span>counsel of the <\/span>petitioner<\/span> claimed <\/span>encroached<\/span> upon their fundamental rights. <\/span><\/p>\n

Simultaneously<\/span>, the CDA has been <\/span>rigorously<\/span> implementing<\/span> the Solid Waste Management<\/a> \u00a0Act 2023 to <\/span>ensure<\/span> top-class<\/span> cleanliness and safety <\/span>standards <\/span>in the city. <\/span><\/p>\n

The regulations <\/span>strictly <\/span>prohibit dumping any <\/span>form<\/span> of waste, <\/span>such<\/span> as <\/span>garbage, construction <\/span>material<\/span>, or other <\/span>things<\/span>, <\/span>on<\/span> streets, green belts, <\/span>water bodies<\/span>, or public <\/span>places<\/span> within Islamabad<\/span>‘<\/span>s <\/span>boundary<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The CDA has <\/span>threatened<\/span> legal action and fines<\/span> against<\/span> violators<\/span> and <\/span>requested<\/span> citizens<\/span>‘<\/span> cooperation<\/span> in <\/span>maintaining<\/span> Islamabad <\/span>as <\/span>clean, green, and safe. <\/span><\/p>\n

The authority has also <\/span>posted<\/span> helpline numbers (1334 and 9213908) and a WhatsApp number (0335-5001213) for citizens to report any <\/span>problems<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Directorate of Solid Waste Management <\/span>of the CDA <\/span>has <\/span>pointed<\/span> out <\/span>the <\/span>role<\/span> of <\/span>civic <\/span>duty<\/span> in <\/span>managing <\/span>environmental pollution and <\/span>called<\/span> upon<\/span> citizens to <\/span>throw<\/span> away<\/span> the <\/span>garbage <\/span>and <\/span>trash<\/span> only in <\/span>special<\/span> bins.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
