Rahmatabad lacks basic facilities
Rawalpindi—Thousands of residents of Rahmatabad are deprived of basic facilities due to the negligence of the city administration and TMA officials.
Scattered mounds of filth, lack of cleanliness, poor sewrage system, blocked gutters, uncarpeted streets and roads, shortage of water and lack of water filtration plants have made the lives of that area miserable, the residents complained. Few of streets were cemented by the administration, but there is no drainage system at all, a little amount of downpour is enough to fill the area with water. The Town administration is taking Rs30 monthly from every house in the name of providing cleanliness, but the condition of the area is getting worst day-by-day. The residents said they have been getting contaminated water as sewage is mixing with drinking water because of outdated pipelines causing different diseases like hepatitis A B and C and other stomach diseases among children and adults. —Online |
