Water shortage

Published March 21, 2018

A CITY that is already facing an energy crisis like the rest of Pakistan is now faced with a water crisis.

It is worsening day by day. The rise in temperature and the decreasing water supply in Karachi have made people scream.

Owing to the shortage of water, people are using water supplied by water tankers, but it is not clean and suitable for use. The prolonged loadshedding is making the situation worse.
