Karachi Water Probe Delayed
Superintending Engineer Muhammad Ejaz has been entrusted with the additional charge of the chief engineer.
The water corporation had constituted a three-member committee on April 30 to inquire into the water pipeline burst in Karachi that had disrupted the water supply in several parts of the city.
The probe committee was given seven days to file its report, but the inquiry could not be completed even after 13 days.
A probe member has said that the committee’s members have been under pressure while inquiring into the matter. “Some officers are not cooperating with the probe,” the member said.
The inquiry committee comprises DMD Planning, the Superintending Engineer, and the Executive Engineer.
The Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation (KWSC) pipeline played havoc with the Karachi University premises as the vast area was flooded with water leaking from the 84-inch main that also entered the houses of teachers and other employees.
The leakage in the main supply line added to the water woes of residents in several parts of the city.
Despite the completion of the repair work on the ruptured line, water woes of the people across the city have yet to come to an end.
