In order to recover commercialization fees and remove encroachments from public sites, the operation was conducted throughout the city. Numerous structures were shut down as a result of the operation, which Asad Zaman, the LDA Chief Town Planner, oversaw. The operation, according to the sources, is a part of the LDA’s anti-encroachment campaign to lessen traffic-related problems and upgrade a few roads to model one.

It is significant to note that the Lahore High Court (LHC) ordered the LDA to commence an operation to construct 9 model roads. In breach of right-of-way (RoW) regulations, many side road obstructions were removed when the operation began on G-1 Market Road in Johar Town.
