PESHAWAR: The Water and Sanitation Services Peshawar (WSSP) on Thursday launched a crackdown against commercial consumers not paying services charges.
The crackdown was launched in all four zones simultaneously. CEO Syed Zafar Ali Shah ordered the crackdown at a meeting attended by General Manager Operations Ali Khan, GM Projects Amir Khan, GM PMER Kamal Afridi, manager and other senior managers. The CEO was informed that only 350 commercial consumers out of 2400 registered were paying bills. “Collection bill will make the municipal services provider financially self-sustainable, water conservation and improved services delivery,” Syed Zafar Ali Shah said.
“No more free services. Those who avail our services have to pay,” he said, asking the zonal managers to register FIRs against the consumers who are not cooperating and showing reluctance to register connections or payment of bills. The CEO said that the Election Commission would be moved against elected representatives of the district government who were allegedly enticing consumers on non-payment of bills.
