October 1, 2026 • 2 hours ago •

LAHORE: The Lahore Waste Management Company (LWMC) and the Safe City Authority are set to launch a joint initiative this week aimed at combating littering in the provincial capital, imposing fines of up to Rs500,000 on offenders.

LWMC Chief Executive Officer Shahryar Khan announced that advanced Safe City cameras will be deployed to monitor and identify individuals who illegally dispose of waste in public areas. This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance urban cleanliness and promote responsible waste management among residents.

The crackdown on littering is expected to significantly impact public behavior and environmental standards in Lahore. By leveraging technology to enforce cleanliness, authorities hope to foster a culture of civic responsibility and improve the overall aesthetic and health of the city.

As the initiative rolls out, LWMC and Safe City officials will monitor its effectiveness and may consider further measures to ensure compliance. Public awareness campaigns are also anticipated to educate citizens about the importance of maintaining cleanliness in their surroundings.
