KARACHI: In a bid to restore Karachi’s Gujjar Nullah to its original shape, the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) is all set to launch an anti-encroachment operation today to clear illegal structures on the banks of the storm water drain.
A strategy has been devised to raze all the structures built along the Gujjar Nullah during the “grand operation.”

Sources said that the original breadth of Gujjar Nala was 210 feet and it will be restored to its original design.
On Saturday, the administration had launched an anti-encroachment drive on the outskirts of Karachi and pulled down dozens of farmhouses reportedly owned by PTI leader Haleem Adil Shaikh, who termed the action as a “personal attack” for his “outspoken and fearless” campaign against alleged corruption of the PPP.
