MANSEHRA: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has provided Rs2.5 billion funds for gravity flow water supply scheme for Mansehra city and its suburbs.
“Thanks to Chief Minister Mahmood Khan who approved gravity flow water supply scheme for Mansehra with the financial assistance of the Saudi Arabia government, which released almost half of project s’ toll cost,” Member Provincial Assembly Babar Saleem Swati told a news conference here on Thursday. He said that because of non-availability of potable water, people of the city and its suburbs were suffering from abdominal and other diseases.
“The gravity flow water supply scheme would be completed with total funds of Rs 5 billion addressing a chronic potable water issue faced by local population since long,” said Swati. He said work on that mega gravity flow water supply scheme would soon be launched.
The lawmaker said that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government had released an amount of Rs 15 million for the widening of Hazara Motorway Interchange Road up to Karakoram Highway and work on that project would be launched shortly.
“The work on Kotkay small dam is well in progress and this project would irrigate 25000 acres of land alongside its kanals,” said the lawmaker. He said that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government had filled various posts to launch Rescue 1122 service in Mansehra. “The required ambulances and other vehicles have been handed over to district administration for the launching of this service here,” Swati added.
