ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has decided to start providing cleanliness services in the unattended rural areas of Islamabad.
The CDA has completed the process of outsourcing cleanliness services in unattended rural areas.
This step will immensely improve the quality of sanitation services in previously neglected parts of Islamabad.
The areas where sanitation services are being introduced included slums, thickly-populated areas in the suburbs of the city, rural areas etc. In order to ensure a smooth and efficient cleanliness system, the unattended areas were divided into two packages.

Package-I will include Muslim Colony (Bari Imam), NurPurShahan, Malpur, Shahdara, Mandla, KotHathial (complete), RakhBani Gala, Lakhawal, PhulGaran, Ghorabaz, Tumair, Lehtrar Road, and other areas.
