- Punjab draws excess water as Sindh and Balochistan face severe shortages
Punjab is withdrawing 21.35% more water than its allocated share (53,394 cusecs vs. 44,000 cusecs), exacerbating severe shortages in Sindh and Balochistan. Sindh faces a 39.6% overall water deficit, with the Dadu Canal experiencing an 85.7% shortfall. Balochistan receives less than its 1991 Water Apportionment Accord-allocated 2,200 cusecs due to reduced flows in the NW Canal.
