Kohat TMA, WSSC launch cleanliness drive.

KOHAT -- The tehsil municipal administration and the Water Supply and Sanitation Company (WSSC), Kohat, have launched a 10-day cleanliness campaign in the district on the orders of deputy commissioner.

The TMA has started cleaning the old bus stand Sasta bazaar, Hangu road, Rawalpindi road, Bannu road and other parts in its jurisdiction. Similarly, the WSSC has started cleaning drains in all the six urban union councils to allow easy flow of sewage.

On Thursday, the TMA of Darra Adamkhel subdivision lifted decades-old piles of garbage from Akhorwal area and disposed them of at a dumping place with the help of heavy machinery.

Speaking on the occasion, deputy commissioner Abdur Rehman said it was also the responsibility of the residents to keep their surroundings clean like their homes. He urged them to put dirt in the dustbins instead of throwing it in the streets which fell in the drains and choke them.

He praised the efforts of TMA and WSSC and hoped they would continue the clean and green drive.
