The Supreme Court on Thursday sought details of the Monal Restaurant as well as other restaurants on the Margalla Hills, emphasizing that the national park is for the people and that no commercial activity should be carried out there.
During the hearing of a case related to the lease of Monal Restaurant, the court was informed that more than 32 large and small restaurants and hotels have been established on the Margalla Hills.
The court stated that while these establishments would not be removed immediately, they would be given adequate time to comply.
The bench, led by Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa, questioned how dining at Monal Restaurant at night and breaking the fast could serve a public purpose. It emphasized that the National Park should be made available for public education and research. The hearing was adjourned until after Eidul Fitr.
