    Mehran Town, Housing scheme, Korangi Karachi was launched by KDA in 1974-75 on instructions of PPP Prime Minister Zulfqar Bhutto for Overseas Pakistanis. Pakistanis abroad relied upon and invested their hard earned money in this housing scheme. That ultimately contributed to pull in a huge foreign exchange in country. By the start of People's Party government different groups of Qabza-Mafia have encroached upon all over the Mehran Town. PM Gilani himself took notice of this massive encroachment on 10 March 2010, but no action hasn't been taken in this regard till yet. Despite the Supreme Court's recent orders about actions against land mafia in Karachi, timid attitude of government officials is inconceivable. There is no perceptible action taken and still several Land Mafia groups with the backing of Govt. allies' parties (PPP-MQM-ANP) are engaged in land grabbing. There have been several clashes on the issue and that resulted in slaying of plenty of innocent people and legal owners. We request all authorities to take immediate notice of the situation and strict action, to return land to its legal owners and to stop this bloodshed.
