He told the parliament that new water reservoirs will be constructed to remove the water scarcity in the country.
Under the WAPDA plan, Chiniot Dam, Karam Tangi Dam, Shevak Dam and Skardu Dam would be constructed. The Sindh areas, under the plan, will be irrigated by increasing water supply and recharging the underground water from the Sindh Barrage.
After the construction of new dams, the total capability to store the water reservoir will reach 25.05 million acre feet, which will be double as compared to current capacity.
If this is true and Current Govt will succeed to contract KalaBagh , I think this will be Big best achievement of PTI Govt and PM Imran Khan then we must salute him on these bold decisions .
