RAWALPINDI: Rawalpindi Waste Management Authority (RWMA) launched a two-week-long cleanliness drive called ‘Safai Nisf Iman Hai’ to keep the city clean and tidy.
The RWMA spokesman reported that thousands of tons of garbage and rubbish were already removed from Rawalpindi city and other tehsils of the district.
He added that complaints received on social media platforms were being addressed, while a comprehensive cleaning drive was also being carried out on the banks of Nullah Leh and adjoining areas.
