KARACHI: Commissioner Karachi Iftikhar Shallwani on Monday issued directives for the deputy commissioners (DCs) to remove encroachments from the tracks of Karachi Circular Railway and restore its stations and booking offices.
The commissioner visited various stations, platforms and booking offices of the Circular Railway and directed the deputy commissioners to take measures with regard to the revival of the railway in coordination with the relevant departments.
