Following continual melting of glaciers at the upper reaches of the Himalayan since the very advent of the rising scorching heat-oriented summer, water level in the country’s second largest reservoir-Mangla dam was constantly rising but with routine pace.

The water level in Mangla dam rose to 1192.05 feet with live storage of 3.773 MAF against maximum conservation level 1242 feet on Monday, officials said.

The inflows of Jhelum river at Mangla reservoir reported as 54700 cusecs with the outflows of 16900 cusecs of water.

The overall position of the river inflows and outflows at Tarbela, Mangla and Chashma along with the reservoirs levels and the barrages in the country remained satisfactory.
