The Pakistan Tanners Association (PTA) has sent an urgent appeal to the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) to remove solid waste from Karachi’s tannery zone with immediate effect.

PTA Chairman Khurshid Ahmed complained that KMC staff had dumped tannery waste on local roads and streets while the Korangi Industrial Area was being de-silted. This, he said was causing traffic build-up and pollution.
