Pakistan has had water crises as more than one-third of the water resources have origins outside of the country

The CJP took the initiative by setting up a fund for the construction of Diamer-Bhasha and Munda dams

The Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources had alerted Pakistanis that the country will run dry by 2025

Commendably, however, voters appear slightly wiser this time

Four political parties speak of water issues in manifestos. Others ignore it outright

Pakistan is one of the largest exporters of groundwater in the form of crops it sells internationally

Pakistan is one of the world’s most water-stressed regions, it will face major disasters unless it changes course

The government has now ordered the immediate construction of the Diamer-Bhasha and Mohmand dams

Problem is the absence of efficient conservation, storage and usage, all at the same time

There is no disagreement that Pakistan is years deep into a rolling water crisis
