Sahiwal (Office of the Director Public Relations)
Commissioner Sahiwal Division Dr. Asif Tufail has taken notice of long-closed state-of-the-art Waste Segregation Plant.

Director Local Government Shahid Farooq Waraich and Unit Head of Urban Unit Ms. Anam were present on the occasion. Senior Monitoring Manager of Sahiwal Water and Sanitation Services Company, Rizwan Ahmed Marth also participated.
The Commissioner instructed the preparation of a practical working plan to ensure the plant delivers long-term benefits. He also expressed displeasure over the plant remaining closed even after its construction was completed.
