Disinfection drive launched in Tank

TANK: The Tank municipal administration has started a disinfection drive to ensure precautionary steps against fast-transmitting Covid-19 virus in the commercial areas of the city, said an official source on Thursday.

“To ensure the precaution measures, the civic body is exploring all possible options for the safety of masses”, said Faizan Khan Marwat, Tehsil Municipal Officer (TMO), while talking to media. The TMO said besides fire brigade-tankers, other means were being used to conduct the anti-viral spray. The official added that washing-points coupled along with hand sanitizers have been arranged at different bus-stops and public places for citizens across the city.

The TMO said public offices, courts’ premises, commercial areas and parks would be sprayed with disinfecting chemicals during the on-going special drive. He urged the residents to stay homes to minimize the spread of the coronavirus.
