KPT succeeded in its relentless fight against illegal land encroachments, which is vital for advancing Karachi’s port facilities and infrastructure. In 2024 alone, KPT reclaimed an impressive 113,386 square meters (approximately 23.427 acres) of encroached land from areas including Gulshan-e-Sikandarabad, Machar Colony, Salehabad (Manora), Keamari, and Younisabad.

This landmark recovery is part of KPT’s unwavering commitment to protecting public assets and
ensuring that key land resources remain dedicated to fostering trade and stimulating economic
growth. Over the past three years, KPT has successfully recovered more than 246858 square
meters (approximately 61 acres) of its valuable land, reaffirming its role as a guardian of
Karachi’s development.

KPT’s dedicated anti-encroachment unit has not only recovered land but has also taken
decisive action against offenders. Multiple individuals involved in illegal land dealings have been
apprehended, and numerous First Information Reports (FIRs) have been lodged against
violators. This robust enforcement underscores KPT’s determination to uphold the rule of law
and maintain the integrity of vital public resources.

The success of KPT’s anti-encroachment initiatives is made possible through the invaluable
cooperation of the Sindh government, law enforcement agencies, local authorities and community
stakeholders. As we enter 2025, KPT is poised to strengthen these alliances further, enhancing
the effectiveness of KPT’s anti-encroachment drives and ensuring the safeguarding of Karachi’s
assets for future generations.
