Pakistan is in for a major environmental clean-up. Nudged by a directive from the Federal government, provincial governments have launched several innovative schemes to fight pollution. The Punjab government has generously earmarked Rs 1.35 crore for various environmental projects, and Rs 61 lakh for the Environmental Protection Agency to execute 1 oncoming and 6 ongoing schemes.

Filtering of drain water, garbage disposal, and a water treatment plant to be set up on the river Ravi by the Lahore Metropolitan Corporation are some of the projects on the anvil.
