Water and Severage
There is a main under ground sewage system in the city of Gujranwala, mainly controlled and maintained by WASA (Water and Sanitation Agency). Water is also provided by the agency but most of the population uses personally owned water pumps at homes to draw water from underground. The main canal that runs through the city is called the "Chichar Wali nehar(Canal)". Gujranwala is generally considered a neglected city by the city government and/or by the provincial government in regards to sanitation and water supplies. All the broken roads and streets are heavily littered with filth and animal waste which is generating serious health problems for the masses.

Famous quotes containing the words water and and/or water:
“Here is no water but only rock
Rock and no water and the sandy road
The road winding above among the mountains
Which are mountains of rock without water
If there were water we should stop and drink
Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“It is so manifestly incompatible with those precautions for our peace and safety, which all the great powers habitually observe and enforce in matters affecting them, that a shorter water way between our eastern and western seaboards should be dominated by any European government, that we may confidently expect that such a purpose will not be entertained by any friendly power.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
