Punjab Province

A property and land auction notice associated with the Civil Court in Ahmedpur Sharqia, Bahawalpur district, has been published, indicating a proposed auction of immovable property in the area.

According to the listing, the notice concerns immovable property associated with the Civil Court in Ahmedpur Sharqia. November 16, 2026, is identified as the closing date, although the available information does not confirm whether the auction itself is scheduled for that day.

Prospective bidders would need to consult the original advertisement or the relevant court office to obtain the complete property details, bidding requirements, payment conditions and auction schedule.

The notice represents a property-related development in Ahmedpur Sharqia, a tehsil of Bahawalpur district in southern Punjab. However, the value and nature of the assets cannot be independently assessed without the complete auction documentation.

The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) has invited objections to applications for duplicate exemption letters for seven plots in its housing schemes, according to a public notice published in Dunya on November 10.

One application concerns Plot 381 in Block D, Johar Town. The original exemption letter, reference JT/AP-363-M1, dated April 13, 1995, has reportedly been lost. The LDA has asked any person or institution with an objection to submit it within seven days of the notice’s publication. Objections received after the deadline will not be considered.
The notice also lists six plots covered by the LDA’s procedure for duplicate exemption letters relating to documents issued before June 30, 1999. These are Plot 126 in Block F, Gulshan-e-Ravi; Plot 542 in Block C, Faisal Town; Plots 437 in Nargis Block, 34 in Chenab Block and 172 in Badar Block, Allama Iqbal Town; and Plot 928 in Shadman.

The LDA said objections concerning any of the listed plots should be submitted in writing to the Deputy Director (Exemption), Lahore Development Authority, 467-D-II, Main Boulevard, Muhammad Ali Johar Town, Lahore.

The procedure follows the authority’s policy on older documents and its standard operating procedure issued on October 30, 2015.

The Punjab Cabinet has approved Rs 3.7965 billion in funds for the Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA) on the recommendation of the housing secretary.
Under WASA Phase III, the agency will purchase modern machinery, including high-pressure jetting machines to clear and restore blocked sewer lines. Suction and desilting equipment will also be acquired to remove waste from the sewerage network.

Dewatering pumps and mobile drainage machinery will be added to WASA’s fleet to help drain rainwater promptly. The procurement plan also includes water pumps and other mechanical equipment to improve the supply of drinking water to residents.

The government said the funding aims to modernise Lahore’s sewerage, drainage and water supply systems and improve municipal services for residents.
