The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) has launched a series of aggressive enforcement operations in New Muslim Town as part of a broader city-wide crackdown. Led by Director-General Tahir Farooq, these actions, which occurred throughout early to mid-2026, targeted properties for unauthorized commercial use and non-payment of commercial fees. The sealed properties include a wide range of businesses such as private schools, clinics, beauty salons, restaurants, grocery stores, and offices. This reflects an ongoing effort to enforce zoning regulations amid the area's transition towards mixed-use development.
An opinion piece highlights the significant urban shift in Muslim Town, Lahore, from a purely residential zone to a mixed commercial area.
