Taqi said at the meeting that the workers of HDA and WASA were patiently performing their duties even though they had been finding it difficult to arrange 2 time meals for their families.

"Even in this holy month of Ramadan, we are unable to feed our families and children properly," bemoaned Taqi.

He complained that the officials of HDA and and WASA had time and again gave them fake assurances about payment of their salaries but to no avail.

"We are performing our duty to maintain water supply and drainage in the city in this month of Ramadan to please the Almighty. But even our patience has some limits," he warned.
