Adviser to Prime Minister on Climate Change Malik Amin Aslam took notice of collapse of drainage line in his native village Shamsabad in Hazro and dysfunctional of filtration plants in Hassanabdal and directed officials of the public health engineering department to address the issues without any further delay.
The drainage line which was executed by the public health engineering department and constructed by local contractors in Shamsabad from the funds provided by the advisor collapsed after recent rains. Similarly two filtration plants inaugurated by the advisor remain dysfunctional for many days in Hassanabdal.
Sources in the public health engineering department told this scribe that the advisor took serious notice of these issues and called the concerned staff at his office in Islamabad and apprised them of his serious concerns over the issue.
The officials informed the advisor that as the contractor laid the drainage line- it was damaged by flush water due to recent rainy spells in the area.
About the dysfunctional of filtration plants in Hassanabdal, the officials informed that the plants remain un attended due to some technical issues as the management committee comprising of locals of the area refused to supervise the affairs after the inauguration which they earlier agreed.
