Share:The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) offices have on Sunday been notified to prevent wedding ceremonies on its lands after the top court had last week ordered the authority to halt running commercial activities on the land provided to it for aviation regulatory alone. The CAA spokesperson said today that all relevant offices of the aviation authority have been notified that from this point forward there will be no weddings in the halls and marquees built on the CAA lands. The Supreme Court on Tuesday came down hard on the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for running wedding halls on its land. “It is not CAA’s job to run wedding halls,” the court remarked, instructing it to utilise the land for the purposes it was obtained for. Justice Qazi Mohammad Amin Ahmed, a member of the bench, questioned whether aviation regulators around the globe run marriage lawns.
