As government's anti-encroachment drive gains momentum in Karachi, citizens have have started razing illegal structure before the officials move in.The anti-encroachment campaign which recently saw thousands of shops razed to the ground seems to have send a strong message to the citizens they no amount of criticism and protest would be able to stop the heavy machinery coming to their towns to recover the government land.In a video shared on a Facebook page, citizens in Malir's Jafar Tayyar area are seen demolishing structures and part of their houses and shops that they think may be razed by authorities.Several streets in the area are littered with debris with residents bringing down the walls and cement structures.The action on the part of citizens seems to be prompted by government's warning that their belongings would also be impounded in the process of demolition of buddings, houses, shops built on government's land.
