The Multan Waste Management Company (MWMC) has launched a recovery van to ensure the collection of sanitation fees in its area.

MWMC Chief Executive Officer Abdul Razzaq Dogar inaugurated the service and also led an awareness rally on smog prevention.

As part of the campaign, he distributed bills and awareness pamphlets to households and shopkeepers, emphasising the importance of timely fee payment and community participation in maintaining a clean environment."The recovery van will visit various areas of the city to deliver sanitation bills and provide awareness to citizens," said the CEO.

"By paying the sanitation fee, residents can help improve the efficiency of waste management services," he added.

The CEO said the initiative aims to make the fee payment process easier and promote a sense of civic responsibility among citizens.

MWMC teams distributed bills and informational pamphlets across different neighbourhoods, detailing the sanitation fee structure, payment methods, and the importance of public cooperation."Together, we can make Multan a cleaner, greener, and healthier city," the MWMC chief concluded. Manager Operations Anwarul Haq said that the Punjab cabinet had approved recovery of sanitation or cleanliness tax, adding that nominal fee would be charged.
