I WOULD like to draw the attention of the relevant authorities towards illegal occupation of 3/4th portion of a public park adjacent to Deaf and Dumb School in Gulistan-i-Jauhar, Block 15 (which was our Eidgah also).

Despite the verdict of the Sindh High Court, some outsiders, claiming to be the workers of a party, have occupied it and have started building bungalows.

I appeal to the relevant authorities to restore the park to its original position as we do not have any other park in this crowded area.
