Mangla non-filling may hit water supply to Punjab

[ziaulislam]

Bhai, trust me i didn't. Maybe I was not clear in my writing. I was merely pointing to the fact that incompetence in the management of the public sector or essential assets can not be a justification for these vital functions. That's precisely why I mentioned two possible solutions as well.
but glad we are at the same frequency.


I wrote and delete something similar in my post above. Lemme say that now. I honestly believe freshwater for Karachi is a crime. Upcoming k4 is a disaster for agriculture. The same water can be used for irrigation.
We need to develop a few reverse osmosis plants for Karachi and supply water through them rather than use fresh water. Karachi sewage then can be used for agriculture in Karachi suburbs or for greenery around M11 etc.
Point is, we should save fresh water on a war footing.

Unless water is metered like in every developed country nothing will change.
Evweyone will waste water
