The incident took place last night on Ferozpura Road – the old Kehna area of Lahore – where the locals established their protest camp against the former chief minister of Punjab.
The residents demanded the rehabilitation of Rohi Nala, claiming that the chemical waste from factories were polluting the underground water level for the residents of the Ferozpura locality.
The protestors said that the former primer Nawaz Sharif was the member of National Assembly from this constituency – NA 132.
The protestors didn’t allow Shehbaz Sharif to pass through after which the former primer took the application regarding the concerns of the locals and called them for the meeting today [Thursday].
