Wasa told to chlorinate city water [1]

Punjab government has directed Water and Sanitation Agency (Wasa) to ensure complete chlorination of pipe water being supplied to the city. The step has been taken following complaints of supply of polluted potable water to various parts of the city. New tube-wells will also be installed where ever required to overcome water shortage and the out-dated pipelines will be replaced. Meanwhile, Solid Waste Management wing of the city district government has suspended a number of sanitary workers in various parts of the city on charges of negligence.
