Burns Road Karachi

Karachi’s anti-encroachment drive by the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) along with Karachi Development Authority (KDA) has now targeted the illegally built properties on Burns Road.

The authorities have demolished around 70 eateries located on the busiest street of Karachi, including the most popular ones, Waheed Kabab House and Delhi Rabri.


On the other hand, it is reported that many of the encroachments were removed by people themselves.

More shops including Fish Stall, Agha Sajji and Dehli Dhaee Baray have also been demolished along with Waheed Kabab House and Delhi Rabri. This is because these commercial based eateries were operating at residential plots and area.

Once upon a time, these restaurants were considered as landmarks and were the pride of the famous food street of Burns Road, located in one of the most engaging areas of Karachi.

Having their favorite food places getting demolished every other day, Karachities have shown a mixed response over this step by SBCA. Some of them are demanding to allocate an alternate space to the targeted restaurants.

Famous human rights activist Jibran Nasir has also shown his response over this matter!
