Well, they have some serious issues and questions which needs to be answered before they agree to dams. Like one example is " if all the power in the water is used to produce electricity, how will that waste water grow crops ? Is this is a scheme to kill agricultural economy of Sindh ? "". The Sindhis wants to know.
