A violent clash occurred on October 13, 2025, near Muridke — an area closely linked to Anwar Town’s administrative and logistical periphery — during a Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) 'long march' toward Islamabad.

Central Park Housing Scheme — Major Development Milestones Near Anwar Town Corridor
Although Central Park Housing Scheme is located on Ferozepur Road — distinct from Anwar Town — its rapid expansion and infrastructure milestones (e.g., Faysal Bank inauguration, A1 Town Houses possession ceremony, Al Marah Children Complex groundbreaking) are reshaping the broader southwestern Lahore urban corridor, directly influencing land use, traffic patterns, and service demand in adjacent neighborhoods including Anwar Town.
