Water shortage

Published December 2, 2012

AS residents in sub-block A of Block III in Nazimabad we have seldom suffered water shortage in the past. However, it has become a recurring problem for the past several months.

Like the unannounced loadshedding of electricity, this too should be taken care of. Not only should water stoppage be notified well before time, the KWSB should also establish its information and complaint centres with their telephone numbers and areas duly notified for the public.

The Managing Director, KWSB, is requested to look into this problem to remove bottlenecks to ensure a regular supply of water to our area.
