LAHORE:
As heavy monsoon rains are lashing across Pakistan, India has constructed dozens of bundhs along the rivers on their side to deflect the river course towards Pakistan putting thousands of villages at high risk of massive deluge.
Well-informed sources said here on Friday that the Pakistani engineers are working on war-footing basis to prevent New Delhis offensive to deflect river course to Pakistan as the Indian engineers are going to play dangerous game in the region by diverting the floodwaters to Pakistan.
Water experts also revealed that Pakistani engineers are battling hard not only to destroy Indian hegemony over the river waters but also trying to avert possible massive deluge as India is likely to release over 200,000 cusecs of additional water in the river Ravi without prior information to the Pakistani authorities.
India has also constructed defense structures including bunkers near Dera Baba Nanak, Sadanwali, Kalanaur, Momaanpur and other areas raising high bundh on their side. Due to construction of these bundhs, a large part of land from Narowal to Sialkot districts, are washed away during the rainy season.
We have credible reports that India during this season is going to releases about 200,000-cusec additional water in the river Ravi, Sutluj, Jehlum Chenab. This high flow of water is bound to wash away thousands of villages in Punjab province, if efforts are not made to stop Indian hegemony on river waters, water experts said.
They also informed that India had constructed a cross bundh on their side near Cheema and Wadali villages that would help India divert its flow towards Pakistani side. Likewise, India has also constructed another bundh near Indian village Rossae on the right side of the Ravi. At least three more bundhs constructed by India alongside the LoC in the Indian Occupied Kashmir would multiply the problem, leading to the submergence of hundreds of Pakistani villages in Azad Kashmir and upper Punjab. Each bundh is reported to be around five kilometer in length and 20 feet in height. Around 170 villages along the Ravi are evacuated every year while the local administration is put on high alert in Narowal and Sialkot districts to cope with any emergency, official sources said.
