The Lahore High Court (LHC) Monday ordered that all schools must re-register within one month, emphasizing that any school failing to comply with the school bus policy will have its registration suspended. The orders were passed by LHC Justice Shahid Karim while hearing petitions regarding the smog issues and steps to address it. The LHC also directed the Director-General of Lahore Development Authority (LDA) to review the city’s roads and present a traffic plan to address congestion, particularly in light of the smog issue. Justice Shahid Karim acknowledged the government’s efforts to tackle smog but stressed the importance of effective enforcement. He stated, “The matter of environmental protection is extremely serious, and further delay should not be allowed.”
