Quetta: In a coordinated effort to clear public spaces, officials in Quetta have launched a significant crackdown on encroachments in various key market areas of the city, resulting in the restoration of roads and sidewalks for vehicle and pedestrian use. The operations, led by Assistant Commissioner Kuchlak and Special Magistrate Abdul Hameed, targeted multiple congested areas including Kuchlak Bazar and Masjid Road.

According to Directorate General Public Relation – Govt of Balochistan, the actions were carried out under the direct orders of Deputy Commissioner Quetta Lt.
