Billboards

What’s at Stake

The practice of placing billboards around public spaces is risky as it puts people at risk of injury and even death. This is even though the Supreme Court has declared the mounting of billboards in Karachi illegal.

Current Status

PILAP has written RTIs to all Cantonment Boards in Karachi, as well as KMC, seeking an explanation to this violation of the Supreme Court’s orders.
