With the connivance of the CDA, around 500 illegal water connections have been installed on the water supply lines coming from Simly Dam. Following the illegal water connections, water pressure in pipelines, which are supplying water to the city and Bara Kahu area becomes very low while these illegal water connections are also causing huge loss to the CDA in terms of water revenue. Accepting that hundreds of illegal connections have been installed on water supply lines coming from Simly dam, Director Water Supply CDA, Zulfiqar Khan said that the CDA directed enforcement directorate to take stern action in this regard. Meanwhile, encroachments have been setup on the CDA’s land near Korang water works area but the CDA has yet to take any initiative to demolish these illegal structures.
