The Balochistan High Court has directed authorities to provide comprehensive reports on traffic and transport issues in Quetta, following a constitutional petition. The court, comprised of Chief Justice Muhammad Kamran Khan Mullahkhail and Justice Muhammad Najamuddin Mengal, heard the case and sought an update on the provision of 27 e-vehicles, 10 diesel buses, and a public transport scheme for lawyers.
The secretary general of the Regional Transport Authority (RTA) presented a progress report, detailing the allocation of vehicles and other transport facilities. However, the court expressed concern over the ongoing operation of local buses despite previous court directives and the lack of progress on the scheme for lawyers. The Additional Advocate General was instructed to submit signed reports on the current status of land transfer for a local bus terminal, the provision of electric vehicles, and the progress of the public transport facility for lawyers.
