DAHARKI is a small town which serves as a hub for the industrial sector as many large corporations are operating in the area. Unfortunately, the city faces many problems

Many drains are blocked and the sewerage has inundated the roads and residential localities. The re-carpeting work on many roads done a few months ago was of so poor quality that they have developed potholes

The overflowing sewage and uncollected garbage are affecting people’s health and their repeated pleas to do the needful have gone unanswered.

The city officials had announced a new water filtration but this promise is also yet to be honoured.

The muncipal authorities need to address these issues as the people’s patience is wearing thin.
