WE, the residents of 20 houses in Shah Fasial Town, are extremely worried about the sewerage problem in our locality. The stinking smell and sewage has become a nuisance for the people.

The sewerage line running from House No2/981 to House No2/1000 is about 27 years old, so the manholes and pipeline often remain choked.

Several complaints have been lodged to the Water and Sewerage Board, KMC, and XEN but all in vain.

It is requested to the authorities concerned to provide us succour as soon as possible by laying down new sewerage pipelines.
