Abstract:
The rights of citizens of Pakistan with respect to nuisance are not secured. There are lacunas
and gaps in our domestic laws that dealt with nuisance. The rights of every individual or
public at large must be protected and quick remedies should be provided regarding nuisance.
Intervention in the enjoyment of rights with respect to nuisance is the lack of adequate laws
in Pakistan.
The purpose of this research is to find out the gaps and inadequacy in the laws of nuisance at
national level. The domestic laws that dealt with nuisance are civil and criminal nature. The
domestic civil and criminal laws are compared with the laws of United Kingdom (UK) to fill
gaps in domestic legislation by adopting the procedure as prescribed in the Noise and
Statutory Act, 1993.
The focus of this research is to made recommendations for proposing altogether a new
legislation or reconstruct the existing legal framework of nuisance to secure the rights of
citizens of Pakistan more effectively.
