Insanitary conditions

Lanes clogged with overflowing drains have also led to cases of malaria, typhoid and other diseases

KARACHI: I would like to draw the attention of the authorities concerned towards the poor sewage and sanitary condition of the Gulshan-e-Iqbal area in Karachi.

People residing in this area, in spite of paying all taxes and utility bills, have been facing this problem. Lanes clogged with overflowing drains have also led to cases of malaria, typhoid and other diseases. The situation has rather become hazardous now, as uncovered manholes in the area can also possibly lead to fatalities.
