India's secret war against Pakistan
New Delhi turning Pakistan into desert
Pakistan faces threat of water starvation
Indus Waters Treaty needs to be revisited, modified
Islamabad: [March 06]
The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) on Sunday said that India has stepped up its secret war against Pakistan to turn it into a desert.
Pakistan, once a water happy country is now facing threat of water starvation but the response of our government remains far from satisfactory, it said.
India continues to steal our water while all efforts by Pakistan to find an agreeable solution have proved counterproductive, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President PEW.
The Indus Waters Treaty has failed to settle water disputes between Pakistan and India therefore, it needs to be revisited and made to order, he said.
Otherwise, he warned, nothing will forestall a war between two countries. It's in the interest of US and the international community to take measures to avert a possible water war.
United Nations is also supporting Indian conspiracies by pumping huge funds in such controversial projects.
He lamented that resolution of such important issue has been left at the mercy of few bureaucrats as politicians remain busy in their favourite hobby of mudslinging.
Dr. Murtaza Mughal said that industries are being closed due to electricity and gas load shedding while insignificant issues keep all the political parties very pre occupied.
No proper effort has been undertaken to combat depleting water storage capacity in Mangla, Warsak, and Tarbela dams while rental power projects remain a preference of the decision makers which due to obvious reasons.
This suicidal tendency will leave us with less water for mass consumption, irrigation, industry, and hydropower generation, said Dr. Mughal.
