Karachi: Mayor Karachi Barrister Murtaza Wahab has reopened the revamped PRC Tower Water Pumping Station, marking a significant enhancement in the bulk water supply to Kemari after 30 years. The rehabilitation project aims to address longstanding water supply issues in the region, with improvements expected to benefit approximately 300,000 residents.
According to Karachi Metropolitan Corporation, the rehabilitation of the PRC Tower Water Pumping Station in Mauripur Town, Keamari District, involved the installation of new DWT pumps and electrical panels, increasing water supply capacity from 0.9 million gallons per day (MGD) to 1.512 MGD. The project, completed without federal or provincial funding, is part of broader efforts by the Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation to utilize its own resources for infrastructure improvement. Mayor Wahab highlighted the initiative as a demonstration of the Pakistan Peoples Party’s commitment to fulfilling its promises through practical measures.
