The Sharjah Municipality had recently organised an inspection campaign in the desert targeting illegally erected tents to ensure environment protection.

 

Omar Al Sharji, Head of the Inspection Operations, said that the municipality had earlier issued warnings to owners of a large number of tents to remove it as soon as possible but unfortunately some of them did not respond to the municipality’s orders. This prompted the civic body to remove large number of tents during the campaign.

He added that the campaign was as per the instructions of His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, to ensure environment protection. Al Sharji explained that the municipality doesn’t ban installation of tents in the desert, but it can be done only after obtaining permission based on certain conditions.He stressed the inspection would continue to remove all illegal tents installed without permission of the municipality.
