delivery.

All officers and employees should avoid unauthorised leaves otherwise they will be dismissed from service due to continuous absence, she said. The best service delivery can only be achieved with 100pc attendance, she said and added that people were requested to inform the company if cleaning staff does not reach their area. Citizens can always dial LWMC helpline 1139 or can use Clean Lahore mobile application, she said.
