GARDEZ (Pajhwok): Tourists have called on authorities to take effective steps for the removal of garbage and control of pollution in the Zazai Aryub district of eastern Paktia province.
They noted with concern the absence of a proper strategy for collecting garbage in the area. They claim the people visiting the lush-green valley have left plastic bags and other items.
Samiullah Haleem, one of the tourists, told Pajhwok Afghan News: “Some beautiful sites in Zazai Aryub district that previously attracted sightseers are now an eyesore due to waste is thrown all around.”
He blamed area people for slaughtering animals . . .
