Jamaat-e-Islami lawmaker Saiful Alam Milon, representing Dhaka-12, told Parliament on Wednesday that WASA-supplied water in Dhaka is foul-smelling and contains insects, making it undrinkable. He raised the issue during a discussion on urgent public importance, urging the minister to take special measures to address the problem.
Milon also highlighted four major problems faced by Dhaka residents, including waterlogging caused by the closure of natural canals.

He called for immediate steps to resolve the issue.
The MP further criticized poor waste management and outdated gas lines across the city, urging the prime minister’s assistance to improve waste disposal and repair old gas pipelines that have caused widespread inconvenience in Dhaka.
