Safe drinking water: PCRWR installs chlorine dosing systems
The project would include installing 296 in Punjab, 160 in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
ISLAMABAD:
Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) is to install more chlorine dosing systems for the benefit of people in flood-hit areas. PCRWR spokesperson Lubna Naheed said that the floods had damaged the infrastructure of the water supplying schemes which had adversely affected the quality of water. She added that though the affected people were helped by different relief providing agencies they soon abandoned the affected people who now need a long term solution to the persisting problem. The project would include installing 296 in Punjab, 160 in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Fata, 69 in Balochistan and 175 in Sindh.
