ISLAMABAD:The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Friday instructed the Capital Development Authority (CDA) to reconstruct ‘France colony’ bridge connecting a slum area in Islamabad.
Chief Justice Athar Minallah issued directives on a petition filed by the residents of slum area.
The court had earlier formed a commission comprising amicus curiae and representative of attorney general of Pakistan to view the matter. The initial report had been submitted to the bench, which stated that a big number of people had been living in slum areas of the country that’s why the court should adopt a sensitive policy for these localities.
The report also attached the copies of approved laws related to slum areas of the country.
