The entire country of Pakistan is experiencing a severe water sanitation problem, with a rapid increase in waterborne diseases. Treatment and prevention strategies need to be implemented at both the national and individual levels, and emphasis should be placed on the use of clean water and proper water management policies.
The global water crisis is expected to worsen if urgent action is not taken in making sustainable amends. This applies to Pakistan as the entire country suffers massively from poor water sanitation. Waterborne diseases are rising exponentially attributed to rise in microbial infestations, trace elements and drug toxicity in many water bodies of Pakistan. Treatment and prevention strategies must be implemented through national authorities and at the individual level. Awareness on use of clean water must be emphasized and proper administration on water management policies should be implemented. Immediate and active sustainability for water resources can ensure a safer future for Pakistan.
