Explanation

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday ordered sealing of the Navy Sailing Club on the Rawal Lake, saying the Capital Development Authority (CDA) and the naval official could not explain any plausible justification for the construction of such a lucrative structure at the bank of a water reservoir. The order was issued by IHC Chief Justice Athar Minallah during the hearing of a petition filed against the construction of the navy club and blocking of the public access to Rawal Lake.
