Pakistan National Assembly Calls Water Resource Problems the Nation's Major Issue
Pakistan's Council of Research in the Water Resources (PCRWR) http://paktribune.com/news/index.php?id=88260 Chairman said that water resources is the nation's major issue and that all out efforts are crucial for Pakistan's health and economic well-being since water has a direct bearing on all socio-economics sectors.
He noted that the Council's random tests of bottled water available in the market revealed that the most of the brands have bacterial and other contamination. He also gave details of the Council's production of arsenic removing kits and low cost filters which have proved helpful in reducing the hazards of arsenic contamination in some districts of the country.
