MANSEHRA: The tehsil administration has warned hoteliers and other businesses to divert the sewerage lines from River Kunhar to anywhere else in Balakot and Kaghan valley, otherwise it would remove them through an operation planned to be launched shortly.
“Kaghan valley and its gateway Balakot are without doubt heavens on earth and we must join hands to stop environmental degradation there,” Assistant Commissioner Balakot Hamid Khan told a meeting attended by traders, hoteliers and transporters of Balakot, Garhi Habibullah here on Wednesday.
The official said that sewerage lines must be removed from the river. “We are also going to launch an anti-encroachment drive along Mansehra-Naran-Jalkhad road and in Balakot and Garhi Habibullah,” he said.
