ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has reportedly fined a man Rs20,000 for wasting water while washing his car outside his residence in Sector G-11/2.
According to the CDA, the action was taken following a complaint from a citizen, along with a video shared on social media showing the alleged wastage of water.
The authority issued a challan against the individual and initiated legal proceedings under the applicable regulations.
The CDA has also warned that similar action may be taken against other individuals found violating water-use regulations or wasting water unnecessarily.
