Pakistan: PPP calls for action against 'water injustice' in Sindh

| @indiablooms | Jun 02, 2021, at 02:10 am

Islamabad: Pakistan Peoples Party Sindh president Nisar Ahmed Khuhro has called for immediate action to deal with the alleged injustice being meted out to Sindh by the Indus River System Authority (IRSA) and the Centre.

The region has been facing an acute water shortage in recent times.

Earlier, addressing a press conference at the Bilawal House Media Cell, Sindh Agriculture Minister Ismail Rahoo accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-led coalition government in the Centre of stealing Sindh’s water share, reports The Express Tribune.

Dismissing allegations of Sindh encroaching on Balochistan’s water share, the minister said that Sindh could not give water to Balochistan when it is not receiving its own share.

He even alleged that Punjab is stealing the water of both the provinces

He claimed that Sindh was supplying water to Balochistan by reducing its own share.
