Multan: The managing director of the Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA) has directed the officials concerned to speed-up the agency’s recovery process in order to bring it out of its financial crisis, a news source reported.
Reports reveal that, in March, WASA made recoveries worth
PKR 31.2 million against the target of PKR 50 million. The prevailing lockdown
situation has slowed the recoveries process and, for the purpose, WASA Managing
Director (MD) Syed Zahid Aziz directed his staff and officials to utilise all possible
resources to ensure the set targets for recoveries – otherwise it would cause
issues in payment of salaries and pensions.
The managing director also directed the staff to recover all the dues from businesses allowed by the government to function in the COVID-19 lockdown.
Furthermore, Aziz also highlighted that recoveries should be
ensured from the government departments as well. He also urged the consumers to
perform their part in the process and clear the dues.
