Rawalpindi : Following the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan, ‘Clean and Green Pakistan,’ the Chairman Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) Tariq Mehmood Murtaza here on Thursday chaired a meeting to review the risk factors along the Nullah Leh.
The meeting reviewed various issues of the Nullah such as rain water harvesting, trash segregation, safe and secure flow in Leh downstream, installation of sewerage water treatment plants in Rawalpindi-Islamabad around the nullah, plantation of bamboos along the banks for recycling, provision of flood retardation basin in Islamabad in collaboration with the Capital Development Authority (CDA) and Federal Flood Commission (FFC) and maintenance and placement of flood forecasting and flood warning systems.
