The anti-encroachment team of the Capital Development Authority (CDA) initiated an encroachment operation at the head office of Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), according to reports.

Accompanied by the district administration, the anti-encroachment team reached and sealed the PTI head office located at Sector G8/4. Heavy machinery and police personnel were deployed outside the PTI central office. The CDA officials stated that illegal constructions of offices belonging to political parties are being demolished.

The plot on which the PTI office is established, allotted to an individual named Sartaj Ali, is under scrutiny due to significant encroachments made by occupying adjacent land, including the construction of an additional floor in violation of building by-laws.

A portion of the PTI headquarters has been demolished, and the office of the political party has been sealed as part of the anti-encroachment operation. According to CDA officials, a large-scale encroachment was established by occupying land adjacent to the plot.

Despite several warnings and notices issued in the past, including ones on November 19, 2020, February 22, 2021, June 14, 2022, and September 4, 2023, the violations were not addressed. On May 10, 2024, the CDA issued orders to seal the plot.

During the operation, the PTI leadership called upon party workers to immediately arrive at the secretariat, claiming that the government had begun demolishing the office in an “illegal and unjust manner.”
