In the last act of water aggression, the sudden discharge of Cusecs of India on the Sutlej River has caused floods in Kasur’s Ganda Singh Wala, immersing villages and devastating thousands of acres of cultivation lands.
According to officials, rescue efforts have been launched when villagers and their cattle are being transferred to a safer land.
In Burewala, the waters of the floods extended through the area of Sahu Ka and the nearby rural settlements, immersing cultivation land and cutting hundreds of villages after a rape on the Sahu Ka -chishtian road.
Dozens of agricultural families in Bahawalpur and Bahawalnagar watched their livelihoods impotent for their main crops (cotton, rice and sesame) were now underwater.
In addition, panic villagers have been forced to leave the ancestral houses built throughout the generations, carrying everything they can and voading through waters to the waist in search of refuge.
According to the flood prognosis division in Lahore, an average flood is going through Sulemanki’s head. The Chenab River is also swollen, with a low flood registered in Marala and Khanki.
In the Indo River, moderate floods are being informed in Buddu and Sukkur Barrages, while in Tarbela, Kalabagh and Chashma, water levels are high enough to cause a low flood situation, according to division.
Meanwhile, breaking a long silence since its May military confrontation, India has communicated with Pakistan through the Indo Water Treaty (IWT), sharing details about possible threats of flooding, official sources said early Monday.
According to the sources, New Delhi warned Pakistan about a possible important flood on the Tawi River in Jammu.
The high commission of India in Islamabad transmitted the alert, with the communication made on the morning of August 24, they added.
It is the first important contact of its kind since the Pakistan-India War in May, the sources said.
After the alert, the Pakistani authorities issued warnings based on the information provided by India, confirmed the sources.
Following the murder of 26 people in the Pahalgam area of India illegally occupied, Jammu and Kashmira (Iiojk) in April, India celebrated the IWT with Pakistan in suspense.
Nueva Delhi accuses Islamabad to orchestrate the mortal militant, an accusation that Pakistan denies.
Based on these unfounded accusations, Indian fought a war against Pakistan in May, which resulted in the greatest military commitment in decades, before the United States negotiated a high fire.
Nuclear weapons neighbors do not agree on the use of water from rivers that flow down from India to the Indo River basin in Pakistan.
The use of water is governed by the IWT, which was mediated by the World Bank and signed by the neighbors in September 1960.
There is no disposition in the treaty so that none of the countries suspend or end unilaterally the PACT, which has clear dispute resolution systems.
The treaty had survived three wars and other conflicts between the two rivals, while many turns and turns support in diplomatic ties.
