Flooding of Sindh

Posted on 10 months ago

The annual floods in Sindh are the effect and not the cause. It is important to look at the cause and not only at the effect. A major cause of the floods in Sindh is the flood waters of the tributaries of the Indus which flow unchecked to Sindh.
Tarbela dam and any other dam to the north of it cannot trap the flood waters of Kabul, Chitral, Haro and Soan rivers. Without Kalabagh dam the flood waters of these rivers will keep playing havoc in south Punjab, Sindh and Balochistan.
To keep worrying about the effect without addressing the cause does not make any sense.
