Lahore, December 11, 2023 : Lahore Authorities Arrest Four Wedding Hall Owners for Marriage Act Violation.
SP Iqbal Town, Ahmed Zanbeer, reported the arrest of four individuals for permitting late-night wedding events at their halls. The detained wedding hall owners face charges under the Marriage Act violation.
In November, the Caretaker Chief Minister of Punjab, Mohsin Naqvi, issued stringent instructions to enforce adherence to the ‘one-dish’ rule and curfew on marriage ceremonies’ timing.
The urgent reinforcement of regulations mandates that only ‘one dish’ is allowed to be served at weddings, and ceremonies must conclude by 10 pm.
Mohsin Naqvi left no room for ambiguity, emphasizing the imperative for unwavering compliance with these rules, extending even to farmhouses. The Chief Minister made it clear that any violations would face immediate consequences, strongly discouraging leniency.
In addition to addressing the wedding regulations, Chief Minister Naqvi visited the Ghora Chowk Defence Mor flyover project, where he assessed the progress.
