Waqar Mehdi, the special assistant to the Sindh chief minister (CM) on the affairs of the CM’s inspection team, has directed all the provincial government’s departments and subsidiary civic agencies to improve their working standards to provide maximum relief to people visiting them or else they would have to face the music.
The special assistant to the CM said he would soon visit the civic agencies under the Sindh government to get the first-hand knowledge of their working after which he would compile a comprehensive report on their performance and submit the same to the CM.
The civic agencies and other institutions, which would be visited by the CM’s aide include the Karachi Water and Sewerage Board, Karachi Development Authority, Lyari Development Authority, Sindh Building Control Authority, and government schools and colleges.
According to Mehdi, senior and incharge officials in those government departments and civic agencies would be taken to task where staffers were found habitual latecomers causing people, who wanted to have their complaints resolved, face hardships. He also warned that show-cause notices would be issued to the officials of civic agencies who showed carelessness while resolving public complaints.
