It is good that activities on safety of drinking water have been reactivated. The title of the group should be : Ensuring Safe Drinking Water For Pakistanis :
Even the residents of the Capital do not get the safe Drinking water why we talk about other remote areas of Pakistan. It is a pity that the manholes have mostly leaking valves. The dirty unsafe water which is filled the water is being supplied under pressure enters back into the water pipes when the supply of the water stops. Taxi drivers and other poor people are seeking the leaked water of the manholes for washing of taxis and clothes. The concerned CDA staff is watching such undesirable scenes without taking any remedial action. If we can't correct the undesirable water problems in the capital then it is a futile effort to make any groups for the sanitation and drinking water.
