Gujranwala - Water and Severage

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.
