Gateway of Asia ,Centre of business,tipping point for $46 billions ..Despite being the game changer ,there isn't a drop of water available for just to be alive in this smart city.
Prize for this development needed from the Residents is very much costly to be given.People would definitely prefer the previous underdeveloped Gwadar rather to face such hazardous and fatal conditions in the shadow of this on going progress.
One cannot understand the logic behind this water crisis..I mean..1 chamber costs nearly 10000..and a tanker of 30000...dying has become a blessing and surviving today in this city has really become a Curse for the people who are actually suffering.
If it is really a major issue so why the authorize people are still silent or waiting for a never happening miricle?
Since last 5 years, the so called deligations in the name of survey and development projects come with a vip protocol just to allot plots for them because they are well aware of how important this small city is.
Almost in 2010 a great inaugration ceremony was held of a mega project if Desalination plant in Carwat(area near Gwadar).A project of approximately 1 Arab has failed to provide a single gallon of water to the needy residents of Gwadar.
What the interesting thing in this issue is ,No one is there to ask them about where the money has gone and who has got the honor and prestige to poket the money.
The water which is hardly granted to the residents which the people are compelled to drink would not even be preferred to wash the Metros of Lahore.The number of diseases prevalent in the area has increased due to unsafe drinking water.The options are Drink and die or stay thirsty till death.One cannot understand either to call this cruelty,injustice,mindlessness or Corruption.
The deep and natural sea port of Gwadar which had made it the centre of focus has become a curse for the local people as it is providing a peak profit to the whole Asia but killing her own people.
Despite highlighting such hazardous and fatal problems which are being faced by the people ,only that aspect of coin is shown to the world which is in response to such injustice that is carrying banners,chanting slogans,holding rallies for demanding water that is unfortunately is than entitled to be called as "The Hatred for the Country".
It is seemed to be authorities have joined hands to punish the innocent people for the sin they are unaware of by denying them water even for drinking .
