FAISALABAD:
In a bid to curb accidents caused by uncovered manholes, Faisalabad’s divisional and district administrations in coordination with WASA have tightened measures against theft and negligence following tragic incidents in Lahore and Karachi.
Commissioner Raja Jahangir Anwar has approved dividing the city into 13 operational zones for speedy delivery of services and redressal of public grievances.
Teams led by directors have been assigned responsibility for each zone.
Each zonal officer will oversee the covering of uncovered manholes, address sewage problems and address citizen complaints with strict instructions that no negligence will be tolerated.
During a meeting of water and sanitation experts, the commissioner and WASA officials outlined the 13 zonal structures.
Managing Director WASA Faisalabad Saqib Raza announced that the WASA Helpline 1334 remains operational 24/7 and a Quick Response Force has been established to immediately cover missing manholes and slabs.
Overseen by the Assistant Director (CRC), the force remains on high alert at WASA headquarters to respond to any night reports.
