Lahore: The Lahore High Court directed construction companies to pay expenses for using playgrounds of Punjab University (PU), along with other educational facilities, as per a news report. The compensation is to be paid because of the construction of mega projects of Lahore Metro Bus and Orange Line Metro Train project. The construction companies have been warned of confiscation of their machinery if they fail to pay these expenses.
The statement came during a court hearing where the court decided to take the matter to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB). The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) officials told the court that the PU playground would be restored to its original form within 20 days.
