The Lahore High Court (LHC) ordered commercial markets across Punjab to close by 8 pm from Monday to Saturday and remain closed on Sundays to combat smog. Justice Shahid Karim issued the order during a hearing on Lahore’s worsening smog. He also directed a shift to a work-from-home policy and banned smoke-emitting vehicles on motorways and Lahore’s ring road, noting that positive results may take up to five years.
