Pakistan has aroused worries when large parts of the country have been overwhelmed in water due to incessant precipitation and water exploitation. The study suggests that climate change has likely that precipitation suffered up to 50% at the end of last month in Pakistan. In addition to this climate crisis caused by humans, global warming caused the catastrophic floods of the country that killed more than 1,500 people.
The human manufacturing crisis has emerged in what a report suggests the outdated dams in the country. A vice report suggested that Pakistan raised $ 40 million for a “mega dam” on the Industry river, but ended up spending $ 63 million on advertising The report also indicates that the Diamer-Bhasha dam on the Indus river, which is far from finished, the mega dam is caught in a scandal.
According to a parliamentary committee of Pakistan (CAP), $ 40 million was raised by the public for the construction of the dam, but $ 63 million was spent on advertising, Vice News reported. The Diamer-Bhasha dam was initially completed in 1980, but several factors such as environmental impact and climbing delayed the project. The dam, once built, will have an electricity production capacity of 4,500 megawatts.
In 2018, the former Pakistan Judge of Pakistan SAQIB created a fund for the construction of the dam, the cost of which increased to $ 14 billion. People were invited to donate to the fund, Vice News reported. Imran Khan, who was then the Pakistani Prime Minister, also assumed the joint management of the “joint venture”. A member of the Pakistani National Assembly said that more amounts had been spent on advertising for the dam fund than what had been lifted for this.
The “joint venture” was contributed to the public, the cricket team, the best musicians, the employees of the army and the government. The Pakistan Parliamentary Affairs Committee summoned the former chief judge Nisar to provide an explanation concerning the dam fund. The CAP last month summoned Nisar to provide explanations concerning the dam fund which was created during his stay. The Diamer-Bhasha dam, when it was built, will have a height of 272 meters. According to officials, it will have a 4,500 megawatts electricity production capacity.
