Pida launches 'contact' drive
LAHORE (April 05 2004): The Punjab Irrigation and
Drainage Authority (Pida) has launched a
comprehensive 'contact campaign' aimed at
improving relations and enhancing co-operation
between farmers and the officials of irrigation
and other relevant public departments.
This programme besides enhancing co-operation and
improving working relationship between various
government agencies and farmers will also help the
farming community make better and proper
utilisation of irrigation water as well as benefit
from the expertise of the government departments.
These views were expressed by General Manager Pida
Shafqat Masood while addressing a workshop on
'joint canal system', held by the Pida area unit
II here, on Sunday.
A large number of farmers from across the province
and officials of the Irrigation Department
attended the workshop.
Shafqat Masood further said that apart from
looking after and repair of canals and water
channels, Pida had also ensured participation of
farmers in the process of settling water disputes.
"The department is also paying special attention
on training of farmers," he said, adding, "the
participation by officials of the Irrigation
Department and farmers has proved very helpful in
decision making process at various levels".
