This problem is from many years, no water in the Wells and Tube-Wells. The people bring water from very far places/villages. This problem adopted a very
critical situation in Landikotal. This problem is about in 70% villages of landikotal. The villages which have no water in their wells, people goes to
another village and bring the water after a long period of wait to their turn. The people here come from different places therefore creating rush, and the
people wait for hours and hours.
Kamran Khan is living in the village Pasyd-khail. He says that his village well has no water. Therefore he goes to village Chengay and bring water from their well. It is very far from his village and difficult for him to do this but it is his compulsion. He says that he waist much time in waiting for their number/turn. Noor Khan of Shekhanu village has also this problem and in every person like Kamran Khan has this type of problems.
The people here tired/fatigued to complain to political administrative. No body is ready to listen to the voices of these peoples. Before this election 2008 the MNA Noor-ul-haq Qadari had just cheated the people to resolve this problem. The government and political administration is set aside and do nothing. The ancient governer NWFP Iftekhar shah had launched a big project for here LandiKotal but due to negligence of Political Administration and MNA, it is in the paper only.
