Upcoming kharif season

Letter May 17, 2018
Several rivers have already turned into dry barren lands

Apart from the meetings called under the Indus River System Authority management, the ministry of water resources is clearly not doing enough. Due to poor water conservation planning, several rivers have already turned into dry barren lands.
