He stated that the Managing Director of the Water Corporation and the concerned Chief Engineer were informed multiple times, but the issue remains unresolved.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-48152 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0011.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"783\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0011.jpg 720w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0011-276x300.jpg 276w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>Dr. Jokhio further said that the Water Corporation sent a water tanker and charged Rs. 9,000 for it. He questioned how a government hospital could repeatedly bear the expenses of water tankers. He explained that the main supply line had not been providing water for years, and partial supply was being managed through an alternative line, which has now also been completely shut down.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-48149 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0015-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0015-1.jpg 720w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0015-1-219x300.jpg 219w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>According to the hospital administration, Water Corporation officials advised them to install a motor pump. With financial assistance from friends, Rs. 55,000 were spent to install the pump, but even then, water could not be supplied.<\/p>\n<p>The hospital receives between 2,500 to 3,000 patients daily in the OPD, while several patients are admitted every day. The Director warned that if the situation continues and water is not restored by tonight, the hospital may be forced to temporarily suspend new patient admissions starting tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-48150 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0013.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"709\" height=\"1038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0013.jpg 709w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0013-205x300.jpg 205w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0013-699x1024.jpg 699w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/>Dr. Muhammad Parel Jokhio has also informed the Mayor and Deputy Mayor in writing; however, the issue still persists.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-48151 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0014.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"1101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0014.jpg 720w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0014-196x300.jpg 196w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260227-WA0014-670x1024.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>The hospital administration has demanded that the concerned authorities take immediate notice and restore the water supply without delay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karachi (Digital Posts) Skin institute facing serious crisis of water due to KWSB Karachi Due to the alleged incompetence of Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation officials, Asia\u2019s largest public dermatology institution, the Institute of Skin Diseases, is facing a severe crisis.
