Water a Prime Issue of Pakistan


Some say terrorism is the biggest threat to Pakistan and others may say political instability is the problem but for me, the hard nut to crack is Water scarcity. Because it is a real-time existing issue in Pakistan.

According to the UNO Report, Pakistan is at the 7th position in the list of countries, which are facing the water crisis. Pakistan is facing a serious threat to Water nowadays. The problem of water needs the serious attention of our politicians, who have ordinary eyes over this issue since the last decade.

Kalabagh Dam Blessing For Pakistan


The Supreme Court on Monday scheduled the hearing of the Kalabagh dam case for June 9. The hearing of the case will be conducted in the apex court’s Karachi registry. 

“Unfortunately Pakistan has suffered due to provincial strife and local politics and we have not built Kalabagh Dam due to this. Kalabagh Dam would be quicker to build and has already been approved by international [lenders]…Pakistan must build at least 20 dams to address water shortages for agriculture and drinking,”

Barrister Zafarullah's statement reveals an intriguing tale to tell in terms of politics.

Among all the situation experts consider Kala Bagh Dam and other dams like this blessing in disguise because Kala Bag Dam is such a huge project which can serve the purpose and helpful in sorting out the issues as a shortage of water and electricity. Pakistan is estimated to be declared a water-scarce nation by 2025 unless new capacity addition is achieved.
