KARACHI, Aug 10: Advisor to chief minister on Environment and Alternate Energy, Faisal Malik Gabol, urged city government to take concrete steps to solve problems of citizens instead of shifting responsibilities.

Talking to a delegation of NGOs, which met with him at his office on Sunday to lodge complaints against the supply of contaminated water, the advisor said he had received similar complaints from other sources.

He said city government must ensure supply of clean water to the people, and advised the citizens to avoid the use of well water or the water being supplied by the tankers.—APP
