'Resolve water-power crisis in Ctg or face movement'

CU Correspondent
Water, Gas and Electricity Consumer Action Parisad (WGECAP) has submitted separate memoranda to the Chairman of WASA and the chief engineer of Power Development Board (PWB) here to ensure smooth supply of water and electricity in the port city.

In the memoranda submitted on Sunday, the Parishad threatened of greater movement if smooth supply is not ensured within a month.

In the memorandum submitted to the WASA chief, it said the organisation did not take any project though water crisis persists in the city.

It also placed a six-point demand including postponement of a decision to increase water tariff and proving metres to all consumers.

In the other memorandum, it urged the PWD authorities to stop the "menacing" load shedding, crippling businesses and industries.

It also called for snapping illegal power connections.
