Residents of Abbottabad face a severe drinking water shortage, prompting the Citizens Alliance to demand immediate action from authorities to ensure consistent supply and avoid protests.

Residents of Abbottabad are currently experiencing a severe shortage of drinking water due to the scorching summer heat. The interruption in water supply for over four days has had a significant impact on the community, leading to distress and inconvenience.

The Citizens Alliance of Abbottabad has urged the district administration and the Water and Sanitation Services Company Abbottabad (WSSCA) to ensure a consistent daily water supply, especially during the hot season. They have emphasized the urgent need for WSSCA to take immediate action to address this essential requirement for the residents.

Despite residents' timely payment of taxes, the Citizens Alliance has issued a warning, stating that they will organize strong protests and advocate for citizen rights on various platforms if the water supply is not promptly restored. The recent transfer of water supply responsibilities to WSSCA has not met satisfactory performance standards, leading to dissatisfaction among the populace.

The water shortage crisis in Abbottabad highlights the critical importance of reliable water supply for the well-being of the community. It is imperative for the authorities to address this issue promptly and ensure that residents have access to clean drinking water without disruption. The Citizens Alliance's advocacy serves as a reminder of the power of community voices in demanding essential services for a better quality of life.
