Diamer Basha Dam construction Updates

[FuturePAF]

We need to build more and more dams we need atleast 100 day plus water storage.

I agree but we barely have the funding to build this dam over the next 8 years. Which is why we need to enact reforms and attract FDI, so that we have enough tax revenue to fund more dams. A water storage dam on at Bhit and another just near it near Machar lake, should be the next dams built, after this one (slide 98). They would ensure any excess water already flowing to lower Sindh is stored to supply Karachi, before it passes on to the sea. This would help end the Karachi water crisis if coupled with effective water management further north.

The more dams we have the more arable land we can irrigate, and the more revenue we can generate. If we can modern our agriculture, the profits (taxes on agriculture) alone should be able to pay for more dams. We are currently at 45 million acres of irrigated land and if we build all the dams and canals in the following presentation “Pakistan flood control system”, we can go to 70 million acres of arable land (a 55% increase). This would open up more land to give to our growing population, and if we couple this with modern organic farming we will have high yields and a highly profitable product to sell on the international market.

Any chance we could keep this thread to just updates on how the construction and development is going without all the political bickering and point scoring.
Thanks.
