ISLAMABAD:Minister for Defence Khawaja Muhammad Asif has called for devising a national action plan for water conservation in the country. Addressing a ceremony in Islamabad on Friday, he said Pakistan is blessed with ample quantity of water and natural resources, but there is need of carefully and cautiously utilization of water and other natural resources. He said we should also make practical efforts to stop wastage of water and launch a campaign in this connection. Khawaja Asif said ways and methods for water conservation and stopping the wastage of water should also be made part of the curriculum.

He said the government also faced resistance from different sections of the society in implementing its energy conservation plan as it is human nature to resist any major change, but consistency is the prime factor to keep the change intact. Khawaja Asif said we should also promote awareness for bringing behavioral change in the society, which is need of the hour. He urged the media to support government’s efforts to create awareness in the society about water conservation.
