I have a scenario:
Rain and Glacier Melting in summer resulting in a lot of water in River Indus. There is no dam and all the water flows to the sea. Later in winter there is lack of rain and water flow goes down. This is a serious threat and Sea water can come upstream.
But if we have Dam and we store the additional water, we can use that water at such times of need to save the fields in Sindh.
We can build 4 more dams on Indus River. Once of those dams can be used purely to keep water reserve for dire circumstances.
For preventing water going waste into sea and full year availability of water check dams are the best solutions.
Pakistan should build thousands of check dams.
They are least dangerous, low cost, water available to every state of pakistan not only to a particular state like p ok or punjab.
In India we have done the same and have built over 3,00,000 check dams.
