The court told the PHA to accelerate its plantation efforts and restore the historic beauty of The Mall, with the cooperation of all relevant departments. The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) and the Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) were also instructed to take action against these encroachments.
