Water scarcity
Water scarcity
Pakistan is the fifth most populous country with a population exceeding 225.2 million, but it faces multiple sources of internal-external conflict. One of the major issues is a shortage of water. According to research by American University, Pakistan is among the top 10th countries in the world suffering from water scarcity.
Apart from this, the work on the Kalabagh and Diamer-Basha dams should be completed with the earliest possible authorities. If these dams are not constructed, Pakistan will face a drinking water crisis and the agriculture sector will be destroyed. The agriculture sector also has a connection with industries. This suffers from both water scarcity and government neglect too.
Water scarcity affects roughly 40 percent of the world’s population. This is the humble suggestion that the higher authorities should take strong steps against the issue as soon as possible.
