ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Farrukh Habib on Thursday expressed confidence that the greater Karachi water supply scheme (K-IV) would be completed by October 2023.
Addressing the contract signing ceremony for hiring consultancy services of a foreign company for K-IV here, he said the project was crucial to resolving water woes of Karachi’s dwellers that had been facing shortage of 650 million gallons of water on regular basis.
He added that the initiative would provide a great deal in purging Karachities of ‘tanker mafia’ which had been exploiting them for the last several decades. The minister said PM, under the Karachi transformation plan, had tasked the WAPDA with execution of the K-IV project.
