Public intrusion ruins greenbelts
Islamabad : Greenbelts, the hallmark of the Islamabad The Beautiful have started developing rough patches,
mainly due to the increased use by the residents, facing mobility restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic.
It is high time for the Environment Department of Capital Development Authority (CDA) to come into action and start imposing heavy fines on those who have been illegally trespassing upon the facilities and dampening their glow and lustre.
“The landscaping of greenbelts and parks is imperative to enhance the beauty of the city, besides ensuring healthy environment to the residents who have already been battling with a global pandemic,” said Raja Shrafat, a senior Islooiite from Sector G-7 while talking to this agency.
