New Car Washes BANNED as Punjab Faces Water Emergency

The Punjab government has officially prohibited the establishment of new car washing stations across the province, according to a report by 24News. This decisive action comes in response to the ongoing water shortage crisis that has gripped the region.

A formal directive issued by the Punjab Environment Department enforces an immediate car wash ban, aiming to curb excessive water usage amid growing concerns. Authorities have warned that violations of this new order will lead to legal proceedings under the Pakistan Penal Code.

The decision is part of broader water conservation rules designed to mitigate the water shortage impact on both the environment and the economy. Officials emphasized that each new car wash facility typically uses around 400 liters of water per vehicle, a figure that poses a serious risk as the threat of drought car washes becomes increasingly real.

The move also addresses long-standing concerns about uncontrolled car wash permits, which have contributed to the worsening drought car washes scenario. By halting further expansion of washing stations, the government hopes to reinforce essential water use restrictions and promote sustainable water management.

This initiative aligns with the province’s latest efforts to combat the water crisis updates, signaling a shift towards more environmentally responsible practices and protecting dwindling water resources for future generations.
