KARACHI: Alkhidmat Karachi on Monday opened another RO plant in the city's outskirt locality of Korangi; an area widely the immigrant Burmese community inhabits, officials said.

This new installation is attributed to Alkhidmat Foundation Women’s Wing Trust, bringing the total number of water plants, which the charity organisation has set up in the city, to 55.
