Acute water crisis hits city areas
Dhaka Water Supply and Sewerage Authority (Wasa) blamed Dhaka Electric Supply Authority (Desa) for the frequent disruption in water supply to different parts of the capital city during Ramadan. The acute water crisis has almost paralysed the normal life in the city recently despite the authorities' assurance about smooth supply of water during the holy month. "Desa is 90 percent responsible for the present water crisis as water supply is being disrupted due to massive load-shedding," a top official of Wasa told UNB when asked about the severe water crisis.
