MIRPUR/AJK — Chairman Global Pak Kashmir Supreme Council Raja Sikander Khan has expressed gratitude to Muslim Hands Mirpur and HUBCO Laraib Energy (Pvt.) Ltd. for completing a new water filtration plant at Government Middle School Banni, Khari Sharif, District Mirpur, Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
Raja Sikander Khan, accompanied by President Global Pak Kashmir Supreme Council AJK Chapter Syed Shabbir Ahmed, had visited the Muslim Hands Regional Office in Mirpur last year and requested the installation of a filtration plant at the school to provide safe and clean drinking water to students and the surrounding community.
Executive Manager Muslim Hands Mohammad Suleman and Public Relations Manager Raja Qamar Atta had assured the delegation that the request would be addressed and the project completed at the earliest.
The newly completed plant now provides free access to clean drinking water for students and thousands of residents of Banni and adjoining communities.
The facility was inaugurated by Major (Retd.) Sohail Aslam Gill, Manager Administration & CSR, Laraib Energy, in the presence of community members, teachers and students of Government Middle School Banni.
Raja Sikander Khan thanked Muslim Hands Mirpur, particularly Mohammad Suleman and Raja Qamar Atta, as well as HUBCO Laraib Energy (Pvt.) Ltd., for their cooperation and support in completing the community welfare project.
He said the initiative demonstrates the positive impact of collaboration among community representatives, charitable organisations and corporate partners in improving access to essential services.
