Rice canal bank

Published October 3, 2020

I AM a resident of Nazar Mohalla in the jurisdiction of Union Council No 4 of Larkana city. Our house is located at a stone’s throw from a canal which is commonly known as the rice canal.

I want to alert the authorities concerned that the right bank of this canal is in precarious condition. This is causing fear among the residents that the embankment may collapse.

The Sindh government is requested to order repairs immediately.
