The Shahi Khatta (Grand Drainage System) of #Peshawar is running on its low capacity due to encroachments (Shops) build on it. The drainage system is over 100 years old designed by #Sikh rulers.
Recently, the "Muncipal Corporation" of Peshawar kicked off "Anti Encroachment Drive" but such permanent structures still untouched. At this stage, need two steps. First remove all the encroachments on "Drainage System" and 2nd is expansion so the system capacity increased.
Peshawar is oldest living city of South East Asia. The urbanization impact (pressure) is quite visible on civic facilities.
