00:14This decision was heard by Chief Justice Atar Minala later.
00:17Supreme Court sentenced on 22nd March 2022.
00:20This case related to Monal Restaurant came to light in 2020 when few photos of Monal Restaurant went viral on social media.
00:27In these photos, Monal Restaurant was under investigation.
00:30Malik Ameen Aslam announced that he will file a case against this incident.
00:35Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed took notice against illegal constructions and commercial activities in Margalla Hills.
00:41In this notice case, court issued an order that the hills of Margalla are spread to Wafakidarul Hakumat Islamabad, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
00:49And this entire area has been declared as National Park.
00:52Therefore, all kinds of commercial, industrial and personal use activities are illegal here.
00:57Court ordered that constructions and their use as rest house are also illegal in Margalla Hills.
01:04But despite this decision of court, illegal constructions continued on Margalla Hills.
01:08But due to Monal Restaurant being on lease, its business activities continued.
01:13After ordering to seal restaurants by Islamabad High Court, this case went to Supreme Court.
01:18And today, Chief Justice has issued a notice against Monal Restaurant's owner.
01:23Prior to this, a list of 113 commercial establishments operating in Margalla Hills has been presented.
01:30And in this list, Islamabad Club is also included.
01:32Many restaurants are operating in its own hands.
01:35Only two establishments have been ordered to be closed.
01:38And that is Monal and La Montana.
01:40And these two places are such that not only they provide better facilities to common people.
01:46This case of closing Monal Restaurant has been taken in relation to harming the environment.
01:50So what will happen to these 1,100 families who will be unemployed now?
01:54To end the court order, Chaperson Wildlife has been removed from their office.
01:59And Mehakmai Wildlife has been suspended from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
02:03The court has interpreted this case as a serious insult to the court.
02:06It has also stopped the promotion of Chaperson Wildlife.
02:09And it has also stopped wildlife from being suspended from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
02:13We will present some of the most important questions to you.
02:15The CDA has presented a list of 113 commercial establishments operating in Margalla Hills National Park.
02:21And in this list, Islamabad Club is included.
02:23And many other places are included.
02:25Many restaurants are operating in their own hands.
02:28The two establishments that have been closed, Monal and La Montana,
02:31which provide standard services to the people,
02:34which have become the identity of Islamabad.
02:36If the case of Monal Restaurant had to be settled with the CDA,
02:40then why can't it be brought to an open auction?
02:44Why can't it be re-deliberated?
02:46If any environmental damage has been caused to Monal and La Montana,
02:51then the Zimni Law can be implemented to assess and control it.
02:56Fines and penalties can be made.
02:59Recreational places, hotels, restaurants are present in national parks around the world.
03:03Why can't we follow this example?
03:061% of the national parks around the world are kept for commercialization.
03:10At one place, people can come and eat their food.
03:13They can also dispose of their food.
03:14So that the CDA can be held responsible that it has been polluted.
03:19Ladies and gentlemen, until now, no assessment has been made.
03:21Unfortunately, we have not been able to do anything about the damage.
03:24As a result of the order to close both these establishments,
03:26tourism, business and 1100 families,
03:29that is, 1100 families,
03:31most of the local people will be affected.
