Lahore- Town Authorities demand bribe to place encroachments in the main market of Mustafabad, Dharam Pura.
Naked electricity wires cause troubles for the shop-keepers. Moreover, due to no parking plaza in the market, flow of traffic also remains disturbed.
In a survey, the hawkers and stall-owners unveiled that the town authorities, police and other related organizations openly demand bribe against the encroachments. They confiscate the goods if someone abhors to pay bribe to them.
Shopkeepers are baffled due to the lack of proper parking space, naked wires and various short-circuit incidents. Various times the shopkeepers have developed plans to abolish the encroachments, but the combined malicious diplomacies of stall-holders and police do not let these plans to crystallize.
