Karachi: Karachi Mayor Wasim Akhtar on Wednesday expressed his commitment to initiating road construction and fixing worn out sewerage lines in Korangi, a news source reported. He further expressed his resolve to complete all commenced developmental work during his tenure in office.
The mayor expressed these remarks while launching the aforementioned projects in Korangi 1/2. On the occasion, he said that it was necessary to fix the sewerage issues in the area before the construction of new roads — stating that the collapsed sewerage lines system was the biggest issue currently facing Korangi. He added that both projects were expected to be completed within four months, at a cost of PKR 50 million.
In addition, Akhtar revealed that development works were underway at the Union Council (UC) level across Karachi. Moreover, the federal and Sindh government also recently formed a joint six-member committee for resolving the development issues facing the city; specifically pertaining to six major areas, including water, sewerage, and roads.
