The Punjab government has decided to take strict action against people who dump animal waste and remains on roads, in drains, or at other public places during Eid ul Adha.
The govt has announced a hefty Rs. 50,000 fine for dumping animal waste along with legal action.
The decision was discussed during a visit by Local Government Secretary Shakeel Ahmad Mian to the Suthra Punjab Authority headquarters, where he chaired a review meeting on Eid cleanliness arrangements alongside Director General Babar Sahib Din.
Managing directors of district-level Suthra Punjab agencies from across the province attended the meeting through video link, while special instructions were issued for the Eid cleaning operation.
Officials were directed to prepare a separate and comprehensive sanitation plan for each tehsil. The secretary also ordered the deployment of additional staff and machinery to ensure timely waste collection and disposal during the Eid holidays.
Authorities were told to complete fitness checks of all waste collection points, dumpers, and machinery before Eid.
Special cleanliness plans have also been ordered for mosques, Eidgahs, and cattle markets, where public activity is expected to remain high.
According to officials, a central control room equipped with modern technology has already been set up to monitor the province-wide sanitation operation. Suthra Punjab teams will remain active in the field continuously for 72 hours during the Eid period.
The local government secretary said emergency response teams and backup machinery would remain on alert in every tehsil, adding that no negligence would be tolerated in the Eid ul Adha cleanliness operation.
