| Decision |
The Supreme Court of Pakistan refused leave to appeal against the High Court's decision which upheld the Lahore Development Authority's rejection of the petitioner's request for commercialization of property due to the lack of required no-objection certificates from adjoining property owners. The court found that the High Court had correctly concluded that the property owner could not avail of commercialization due to failure to fulfill the necessary regulatory requirements, including fee submission. This decision reinforces the importance of compliance with local regulations in property commercialization cases. |
