Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Chief Justice Mr. Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui(Author), Hon'ble Mr. Justice Irshad Ali Shah
Order Date: 24-MAY-22
Since water quality plays significant role for aquatic life, we have enquired about tentative water quality assessment from officials who have not satisfactorily assisted. pH and TDS plays a significant role in determining the quality of water and its conduciveness for fish growth. It is very alarming if these tenders could be awarded without water assessment and thus would be a futile attempt for such purpose and may have a financial catch for some individual[s]. pH is a measurement of concentration of hydrogen ions in water. Lower pH means more hydrogen ions and higher PH means fewer hydrogen ions. pH has a scale from 1-14 which measures acidity and Alkalinity of water, anything above 7 in an alkaline based water whereas less than 7 is acidic. Similarly TDS is actually total dissolved solids in water which include both organic and inorganic substance. Research shows the effect of varying pH value differently on different commodity.Full judgment text for this case is not yet available on Pakistan Law Reports.
