If this practice is continued the water wells of the village would turn brackish, he added. The CM Sindh directed Secretary Energy, SECMC and other concerned to remove the grievances of the villagers and provide them a separate RO plant, if necessary.
"The pond being developed at Gorani village can be lined or another arrangement, in consultation with concerned villagers must be made," he said.
