Environmentalists in Pakistan were thrilled on the last day of 2020 when a court in Lahore temporarily halted the building of a new city along the Ravi river.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan had announced the $30 billion Ravi River Urban Development Project, which aimed to meet the housing needs of a growing population and also create new jobs by developing 1,00,000 acres of land along 40 km of the riverbank.
However, the provincial assembly approved a body to oversee the development work without an environmental impact assessment.
