Punjab Local Government Minister Zeeshan Rafiq has directed officials to intensify anti-littering inspections and implement effective anti-smog measures across various tehsils.
Chairing a meeting at the Suthra Punjab Authority office, he instructed Field Monitoring Officers to remain present in Union Councils and ensure compliance with the Environment Department’s anti-smog directions.
Secretary Local Government Zaid bin Maqsood and DG Suthra Punjab Authority Umar Javed attended the meeting, while commissioners and managing directors from Multan, Gujranwala, Dera Ghazi Khan and Faisalabad joined via video link.
Officials briefed the meeting on waste collection points, waste enclosures and the ongoing geospatial mapping of Union Councils.
The minister said the movement of loader rickshaws would be digitally monitored in each beat. He also directed officials to shift waste from temporary collection points to dumping sites without delay.
He asked officials to report crop-burning incidents to the assistant commissioner and use mechanical sweepers instead of manual road cleaning during the smog season.
