MUZAFFARGARH, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 21st Apr, 2021 ) :Residents of Tibba Karimabad on Wednesday staged a demonstration against sewerage spread at many places in their area and urged the government and local administration to put in place a proper sewerage system to save the inhabitants from diseases.

Residents said, Tibba Karimabad is a settlement of around 50,000 mostly poor labour class people in the suburbs of Muzaffargarh city, and was almost surrounded by sewerage since long making their life tough in the absence of a proper sewerage system.

The demonstration was led by president Mazdoor Welfare Tanzeem Muzaffargarh Malik Wazir Ahmad Mohana.

He appealed the chief minister Sardar Usman Buzdar, Advisor to CM Sardar Abdul Hayee Dasti and deputy commissioner Amjad Shoaib Khan Tareen to provide special funds to ensure a hygienic atmosphere to the residents of Tibba Karimabad.
