Staff of Town Planning Wing of Lahore Development Authority (LDA) sealed 10 wedding venues, including a marquee and nine marriage halls, in Harbanspura and Mughalpura along Canal Road on Thursday.
These marriage halls/marquee had been constructed in contravention of building bylaws. The minimum land required for setting up a marquee was eight kanals whereas at least four kanals land was necessary for constructing a marriage hall with two kanals of land to be left vacant for parking vehicles.
None of these marriage halls/marquee had fulfilled these conditions. The owners had illegally set up these ventures after getting approved plans for constructing residences or office buildings at site.
The sealed marriage halls included Crystal Marriage Hall, Sarena Banequet Hall, Saleem Marriage Hall, Blessing Marriage Hall, Mehal Marriage Hall, C View Marriage Hall, Marina Palace Marriage Hall, Alkhair Marriage Hall, New Marriage Hall and Shalimar Grand Marquee.
Meanwhile, an under-conduction marriage hall opposite to Harbanspura Police Station was also sealed by staff, which was being converted illegally from residential house to marriage hall.
Meanwhile, LDA Director General has entrusted the additional charge of the post of Secretary LDA & other sponsors, to Salma Suleman, Director Inspection & Evaluation, relieving her from the additional charge of the post of Director Land Development-III. He has also entrusted the additional charge of the post of Director Land Development-III, to Sardar Muhammad Akbar Nakai, Director Land Development-II, relieving him from the additional charge of the post Secretary LDA & other sponsors.
