Sherry Rehman 40% Less Rainfall Water Crisis
Sherry Rehman, a former environment minister, stated that Pakistan received 40 percent lesser rainfall owing to the climate change.
Rehman said that the water level at Sukkur Barrage has dropped by 71 percent, while overall 65 percent water shortage recorded at Sindh’s three barrages.
“Three provinces are facing drought situation and water has not been available for cultivation,” the PPP leader said.
“Instead of water conservation, more canals being built, which will dry the Indus River,” she said.
She said that the underground water being pumped out is aggravating the water shortage crisis.
Senator Rehman said that the water shortage poses a grave threat to human life and the agriculture sector.
It is to be mentioned here that the water availability and river water share between provinces has become a burning issue as well as a bone of contention between the PML-N led federal government and its key ally the People’s Party.
