Karachi. June 05: As a precautionary measure Nazim Karachi Syed Mustafa Kamal has directed all executive officers of City District Government Karachi to prepare a District Rain Emergency Relief and Rescue Plan to deal with any untoward situation during next monsoon season.
Addressing a meeting at his office Nazim Karachi instructed concerned officials to work out a comprehensive strategy with the coordination of town’s administration and concerned departments of provincial and federal government so that all precautionary measures could be finalized before the start of monsoon rains.
He said that the storm water drains constructed by city government at every newly constructed road provided great help in draining out water and this facility could again save roads from accumulation of water.
