The LAWDA issued the warning on Tuesday after it carried out a successful encroachment removal drive in the vicinity of holy Hazratbal Shrine, situated on the western shore of Dal Lake.

The LADWA demolition squad, in coordination with Muslim Waqf Board, demolished 30 illegal kiosks and other constructions near the shrine. The Enforcement Wing of LAWDA also seized six truck-loads of construction material near Dalgate early this month and registered an FIR against the erring persons.
