FAISALABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 12th Sep, 2025) Enforcement Team of Faisalabad Development Authority (FDA) has challaned 24 shopkeepers involved in encroachments in Gulberg and referred their cases to Special Judicial Magistrate’s court.

He said that during inspection on Anarkali Road near Gulberg Baghdadi Park, the FDA team found that 24 shopkeepers had placed business goods on roads and blocked public pathways despite being repeatedly warned.
These shopkeepers included those running gas filling units, rent-a-car services, candy and toffee stalls and other small businesses. They also displayed signboards, counters and merchandise on public property.
