KARACHI: Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Gulzar Ahmed on Tuesday ordered the complete revival of the Karachi Circular Railways (KCR). Hearing the case pertaining to the revival of the KCR project at the Supreme Court of Pakistan’s (SCP) Karachi Registry, the CJP asked the Sindh deputy advocate general about the position of the project. To this, the CJP directed him to talk with the Sindh government, resolve issues and ensure 100 per cent revival of the KCR. The court also directed the Sindh Rangers director general and Sindh Police inspector general to provide security to the PR’s officials during the anti-encroachment drive. On November 10, the SCP had issued contempt notices to the PR and Sindh government over failure to implement its orders regarding the KCR project.
