ISLAMABAD:

The Indus River System Authority’s (IRSA) advisory committee on Thursday deferred the finalization of the Kharif 2023 water availability criteria.

Wapda informed the body that operational constraints regarding the Tarbela-V project execution had changed from the earlier committed outflow parameters.

In this changed scenario, it was decided to convene the Irsa Technical Committee (ITC) meeting again in order to re-plan the 2023's Kharif water availability criteria.

Therefore, the advisory committee meeting to finalise/approve Kharif water availability criteria, would be held after ITC's recommendation based on the changed parameters.
