The Anti-Theft Cell of Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation (KWSC), in collaboration with Pakistan Rangers, successfully carried out an operation against water theft in Orangi Town. During the operation, officials sealed an illegal hydrant used for unauthorized water extraction.
According to KWSC officials, the operation targeted a 4-inch illegal water connection that had been siphoned through a tunnel into a larger 48-inch diameter pipeline in Orangi Town.
The illegal hydrant was promptly disconnected, and heavy machinery and other equipment used in the theft were seized by the authorities. The action highlights KWSC’s ongoing efforts to curb water theft and ensure the equitable distribution of water to all areas.
