标题：'Release of floodwater by India worsens crisis in Punjab'
时间：2025-8-27

Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal on Wednesday accused India of worsening floods in Pakistan by releasing water in relays instead of sharing timely information under the Indus Water Treaty.
Earlier, briefing the media, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said that three rivers in Pakistan were experiencing flooding, with the army carrying out rescue operations in affected areas.
He was flanked by Information Minister Attaullah Tarar and NDMA Chairman Lieutenant General Inam Haider Malik.
The DG ISPR said that troops and officers were standing with the nation in this difficult time.
Rescue efforts were underway in Kartarpur using boats, while the Karakoram Highway had been reopened.
Tarar said the Sutlej, Chenab and Ravi rivers were facing high flows, with water at Head Khanki exceeding one million cusecs.
He added that the NDMA was in constant contact with provincial authorities and had alerted local administrations to begin evacuations.
He said Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif chaired a meeting on the flood situation and directed authorities to accelerate relief operations.
Tents and other supplies were being distributed, while warnings had enabled timely evacuations and reduced risks.
Tarar stressed that this was a “national response,” with federal and provincial institutions working together. He said losses would be assessed in the coming days, followed by rehabilitation measures.
Around 200 to 300 people remained stranded in Kartarpur Corridor on Wednesday morning. The armed forces were called in to assist with rescue efforts.
Visuals from the area showed Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Narowal District completely submerged after the Ravi River overflowed its banks.
Officials from the Evacuee Trust Property Board confirmed that floodwater had entered the compound, with levels in some sections of the shrine reaching nearly three feet. The inundation drowned the gurdwara’s courtyard and main staircase, forcing pilgrims to a standstill.
Authorities said visits would resume only after drainage and cleanup operations are completed.
Relief and rescue efforts
The Pakistan Army has been engaged in flood relief operations across six districts of Punjab since last night, state-run PTV reported. Other disaster management bodies, including the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) and Rescue 1122, are also responding to the crisis.
Provincial and federal authorities said nearly 190,000 people have already been evacuated, with the military assisting in rescue operations across dozens of inundated villages.
Rescue and relief efforts are underway in Lahore, Faisalabad, Okara, Kasur, Sialkot and Narowal, where several villages and towns, including Kasur and Ganda Singh Wala along the Sutlej River, are submerged in floodwater.
Troops have been transporting flood-affected people to safer locations using boats. Children, women and elderly residents are among those relocated, with soldiers also ensuring the safe transfer of victims’ belongings and livestock.
Relief camps have been established jointly by the Pakistan Army and the district administration to accommodate the displaced population.

At least 32,589 people have been evacuated from flood-prone areas across Punjab as authorities reported critically high water levels in major rivers and reservoirs, triggering large-scale rescue and relief operations, Rescue 112 officials confirmed on Wednesday.
Thousands were relocated from vulnerable areas along the Indus, Chenab, Ravi, Sutlej and Jhelum rivers, said officials.
By noon on Wednesday, another 987 people had been evacuated. These included 719 from Nankana Sahib, 124 from Hafizabad, 103 from Narowal, 27 from Gujrat and 14 from Gujranwala.
On Tuesday alone, 5,970 people were shifted, including 2,275 from Kasur, 914 from Okara, 846 from Pakpattan, 785 from Bahawalpur, 323 from Vehari, 270 from Bahawalnagar, 259 from Narowal, 74 from Hafizabad, 27 from Lodhran and 15 from Chiniot.
Rescue officials said 436 boats were in active operation, with 74 in Kasur, 28 in Okara, 16 in Pakpattan, 18 in Bahawalnagar, 20 in Vehari, 15 in Bahawalpur, 18 in Sialkot, 14 in Narowal, 16 in Gujrat, 15 in Mandi Bahauddin and 19 in Hafizabad. Another 400 boats with trained staff were kept on standby.
Punjab Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr Usman Anwar announced that his department has been on high alert under directives from Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif. Evacuations are underway in Lahore, Sheikhupura and Nankana Sahib, while relief camps were established to provide food, clean water and medicines, he said.
“Protecting the lives and property of the people is our foremost priority,” said Anwar, adding that police teams were patrolling riverside villages and coordinating with PDMA, district administrations, rescue services and security agencies. Police were also helping to distribute food, water and medicines alongside other institutions.
The Edhi Foundation also mobilised its teams, particularly in Kasur, where several villages including Ganda Singh, Chanda Singh, Bhikki and Dhoneh had been affected by floods.
Edhi volunteers were evacuating families, running medical camps and working round-the-clock in shifts. A spokesperson urged citizens to contact Edhi’s emergency helpline 115 in case of need.
River levels remain high
Water levels in Pakistan’s major rivers and reservoirs remain critically high, with inflows surpassing 1.2 million cusecs and floodwaters continue to move downstream into Punjab. Authorities reported both large-scale evacuations and extensive rescue efforts as concerns mounted over the safety of communities along the Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej rivers.
According to the Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), the Indus River at Tarbela recorded an inflow of 240,000 cusecs and outflow of 245,400 cusecs.
At Mangla on the Jhelum, inflow was 34,000 cusecs and outflow 8,000 cusecs. Chashma saw inflows of 326,600 cusecs and outflows of 329,000 cusecs, while at Head Marala on the Chenab, inflows reached 107,500 cusecs against 89,500 cusecs outflow.
In Nowshera, the Kabul River registered 39,400 cusecs both in inflow and outflow.
Reservoirs remained under pressure, with Tarbela at 1,549 feet holding 5.67 million acre-feet (MAF), Mangla at 1,220.95 feet also holding 5.67 MAF, and Chashma at 647 feet with 0.21 MAF.
The combined usable storage across Tarbela, Mangla and Chashma stood at 11.55 MAF. Since 1 April, however, 11.8 MAF of water – estimated at US$11 billion – has flowed into the sea.
The Indus carried the largest volume to the sea, with flood-like conditions reported from Chashma downstream to Kotri. At Sukkur, discharge reached 449,000 cusecs; at Guddu, 312,000 cusecs; at Taunsa, 345,000 cusecs; and at Kalabagh, 271,000 cusecs.
On the Chenab, flow at Head Marala touched 902,000 cusecs, while no dam exists to store its waters.
PDMA Director General Irfan Ali Kathia said the Head Marala structure had remained safe, with floodwaters having passed and water levels beginning to recede.
Flood peaks were recorded at Khanki, Qadirabad, Ganda Singh, Jassar and Shahdara, with flows in the Ravi touching 240,000 cusecs.
Kathia added that around 150,000 people had been evacuated to safer locations, with Pakistan Army units deployed in seven districts.
He said extraordinary rainfall in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K) as well as in Punjab’s Sialkot region, had caused rivers to swell.
However, he expressed optimism that floodwaters would pass Kalabagh and Trimmu within safe limits, noting that drainage was being managed effectively.

标题：Thousands evacuated in Punjab as India opens floodgates, rains swell rivers to ‘exceptionally high’ levels

Follow Dawn.com’s live coverage of Punjab floods here.
Authorities in Punjab have evacuated thousands of people from areas along the rivers as Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej rivers faced “exceptionally high” floods after India released water into Pakistan, officials said on Wednesday.
Punjab is facing an unprecedented flood emergency due to a combination of heavy rains and India’s decision to release water from at least two dams. Both countries have been ravaged by intense monsoon rains and flooding in recent weeks.
What we know so far:
Two headworks at Chenab, one each at Ravi and Sutlej in ‘exceptionally high flood’
PMD says very high to exceptionally high flood to continue in Sutlej, Ravi
Army called in for 8 districts
PMD warns of ’very high’ flood in Sindh on Sept 4-5
Rescue 1122 says over 32,500 people evacuated so far from river areas
Sialkot breaks 49-year rain record; more showers expected across Punjab
Climate expert warns of ‘nature’s fury’, noting damage to Indus Delta
Today, India opened all gates of major dams on rivers in occupied Kashmir following heavy rains, and warned Pakistan of the possibility of downstream flooding, Reuters quoted an Indian government source as saying.
Subsequently, the water ministry issued a flood alert, seen by Dawn.com, for flooding on three rivers — Sutlej, Ravi and Chenab — which flow into the country from India.
At the same time, heavy rains in the upper catchment areas of the Chenab River have swollen downstream flows, placing thousands of citizens at risk. The Punjab government has called in the army in eight districts to assist civil authorities in rescue and relief operations.
As of 3pm, Chenab at the Qadirabad and Khanki headworks, Ravi at Jassar, and Sutlej at Ganda Singh Wala were in an “exceptionally high flood” condition, according to the data by the Met Office’s Flood Forecasting Division (FFD).
Jassar Headworks had already been declared as facing exceptionally high flood at 2am
The water outflows at Khanki and Qadirabad were recorded at over 1 million cubic feet per second (cusecs), with a “rising” trend.
The outflows at Jassar and Ganda Singh Wala were over 200,000 cusecs, with “falling” flows in the former and steady in the latter.

Marala Headworks, which had been in “exceptionally high flood” at 2am, was now at “very high” flood level, with declining outflows of around 500,000 cusecs.
Balloki and Shahdara on Ravi, as well as Suleimanki Headworks at Sutlej, faced a medium-level flood. The water outflows in the two Ravi locations were less than 100,000 cusecs, while those at Suleimanki were a bit over 100,000 cusecs.
Speaking to Dawn.com, climate change and sustainable development expert Masood Lohar termed the floods in the eastern rivers — Sutlej, Ravi and Beas — “unusual”.
He said that a similar situation also persists in the western rivers, as the water level in Chenab reached 1m cusecs, which again was “very unusual”
This, Lohar noted, poses a high risk to several areas in Punjab, particularly those located downstream, including Lahore, Bahawalpur, Sialkot and Kasur.
“Infrastructure, agricultural land and even entire cities can be wiped off,” he warned, adding that such a situation has never been seen before because water has even entered the previously abandoned riverbeds.
The headworks of Chashma, Taunsa, Guddu, Sukkur, and Kotri on the Indus River were in “low” flood as of the last FFD update at 12pm. Islam Headworks on the Sutlej River was also in low flood.
At 12:30pm, the spillways of Tarbela Dam were to be opened to release water, according to a post by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA).
The authority expected the water levels to reach 250,000 cusecs as a result and urged the public to avoid going near waterways in adjoining areas of the Indus River, where increased water flows were likely.
The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) said late on Tuesday that India had opened all the gates of its Thein Dam on the Ravi River. The announcement came a day after Pakistan received a second warning from India that it intended to release water from the rapidly filling Madhopur Dam, Reuters reported. Both dams are located on the Ravi River, which flows from Indian Punjab into Pakistan.
The army has been requisitioned in eight districts of Punjab — namely Lahore, Okara, Faisalabad, Sialkot, Narowal, Kasur, Sargodha and Hafizabad — to support district administrations in protecting lives and property.
The Punjab Home Department requested the deployment of troops in Hafizabad in a notification issued today, while the letters for the other seven districts had been issued yesterday.
The decision was taken after local administrations formally requested the immediate deployment of troops.
In a statement today, the PDMA highlighted that the flood situation had arisen in Punjab as “there was a record increase in river waters due to rains in the northern areas”.
Detailing decisions taken during a meeting chaired by Punjab minister Khawaja Salman Rafiq and Chief Secretary Zahid Akhtar Zaman, the PDMA statement said it was decided not to place breaching sections (part of a flood embankment) at Chenab and Ravi rivers.
Punjab Relief Commissioner Nabeel Javed, in a statement, said all deputy commissioners and other officers were present on the ground.
“There is no room for mistakes,” he asserted, ordering authorities to ensure the evacuation of residents from flooded areas as soon as possible.
Kartarpur, home to the Sikh religious site of Gurdwara Darbar Sahib, was flooded as well.
Army troops, in coordination with local administration, were working to evacuate around 200 to 300 people who were stranded, state-run Radio Pakistan reported.
Minister of State for Interfaith Harmony Khel Das Kohistani said the Prime Minister House was “actively working”, with him and Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal also “making every effort” to rescue the pilgrims and staff at Baba Guru Nanak Kartarpur Corridor.
PMD warns of ‘very high’ flood in Sindh on Sept 4-5
The PMD’s FFD issued a weekly outlook at 12pm, warning that the Indus River at Guddu and Sukkur barrages were expected to attain a “very high” flood level on Sept 4 to 5.
The FFD said “very high to exceptionally high flood levels will continue in River Sutlej at Ganda Singh Wala and downstream, [as well as] River Ravi at Jassar and downstream”.
The division forecasted “high to very high” flood levels in the nullahs of Ravi and Chenab during the next 24 hours. It added that Trimmu Barrage on Chenab was expected to attain an “exceptionally high” flood level on Friday evening.
“River Chenab at Panjnad (including discharges from Balloki and Islam) is expected to attain [a] very high flood level on September 2,” the alert warned.
PDMA warns of high flood in Ravi at Jassar
Speaking to the media this morning, Punjab PDMA Director General Irfan Ali Kathia warned that the high flood in Ravi at Jassar was expected to pass through Lahore and Shahdara tonight between 10pm and 12am.
DG Kathia added that the flood was expected to pass through Balloki Headworks at 9am tomorrow.
He highlighted that all relevant institutions, including rescue teams and district administrations, have been alerted as per the directives of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz.
The PDMA DG said 20,000 to 25,000 people had already been evacuated from the floodplains of Chenab and Ravi.
DG Kathia pointed out that the last time such a huge flow of water was seen was nearly 38 to 39 years ago.
“But now we’re expecting that the water will be between 180,000 and 190,000 cusecs,” he said, adding that since Shahdara has a capacity of 250,000, it is expected to pass safely without major losses.
Over 32,500 people evacuated so far from river areas: Rescue 1122
Meanwhile, over 32,500 people have been evacuated so far from areas alongside various rivers in Punjab, the Rescue 1122 service said as relief and rescue operations continue.
“Around 32,589 people have been evacuated safely from areas along the banks of the Indus, Chenab, Ravi, Sutlej, and Jhelum rivers,” Punjab Rescue 1122 spokesperson Farooq Ahmad said in a statement.
“Yesterday, around 5,970 people were evacuated from areas that could potentially face flooding,” Ahmad said.
Giving a district-wise breakdown, Ahmad said 2,275 were evacuated from Kasur, 914 from Okara, 846 from Pakpattan, 785 from Bahawalpur, 323 from Vehari, 270 from Bahawalnagar, 259 from Narowal, 74 from Hafizabad, 27 from Lodhran and 15 from Chiniot.
Rescue teams in the above districts, as well as in Sialkot, Gujranwala, Gujrat and Mandi Bahauddin, had been placed on high alert.
The spokesperson, in a statement, said around 987 people have been rescued from potential flood areas today, including 719 from Nankana Sahib, 124 from Hafizabad, 103 from Narowal, 27 from Gujrat and 14 from Gujranwala.
Asserting that the teams are “working day and night in flood-hit areas”, Ahmad said around 436 boats were engaged in rescue efforts, out of which 74 are in Kasur, 28 in Okara, 20 in Vehari and less than 20 each in Hafizabad, Pakpattan, Bahawalnagar, Bahawalpur, Sialkot, Narowal, Gujrat, and Mandi Bahauddin.
Another 400 rescue boats will be utilised as backup, the Rescue 1122 official added. Nearby districts have also been instructed to help in case of any emergency.
The Edhi Foundation, in a statement issued by its spokesperson, detailed its relief efforts in the flood-hit areas in Kasur, saying that its teams shifted many affected families to safety.
“Relief efforts are underway in Kasur, where the following villages have been flooded: Ganda Singh, Chanda Singh, Bhikki, and Dhonay,” the statement said. It added that medical camps have been set up for the affected families, and urged citizens to reach out to Edhi’s helpline at 115 in case of an emergency.
Silakot District Emergency Officer (DEO) Engineer Naveed Iqbal appealed to residents of low-lying areas near the Tawi and Chenab rivers to immediately relocate to safe places to avoid any untoward situation, APP reported.
‘Be ready to deal with nature’s fury’
Lohar, the climate change expert, pointed out that it was wrong to call these floods “water terrorism” by India because the neighbouring country was itself impacted.
“We have seen cloudbursts, glacial lake outbursts and massive floods in Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand and other areas of India,” he told Dawn.com.
“If they do not release the water downstream, they will sink,” he said. “India has understood that rivers cannot be stopped … this is a response to them by nature.”
Talking about the danger that these floods pose to Sindh, he stated that whatever water enters the Indus Valley ultimately accumulates in the Indus Delta. Unfortunately, 96pc of that has been damaged — one of the major reasons behind the volatile climatic events across the country, the environmentalist stressed.
“As per my estimates, this water will flow downstream into Sindh within the next 12-15 days,” he said — a forecast reaffirmed by the PMD.
“But you never know … the dynamics we are witnessing right now are completely new,” Lohar said, highlighting that the weather patterns in the country had taken everyone by surprise, eg, the 363mm record rainfall in Sialkot yesterday.
“So if there is more rain like that up north, which causes flash floods, the water levels may reach up to 1.2m cusecs by the time the water reaches Guddu Barrage,” he said. But at the same time, Lohar noted that these were all just hypothetical statements because no one knows what will happen in the upcoming days.
Elaborating on the bigger picture, Lohar emphasised that all rivers, whether eastern or western, followed a path and had a set of dynamics.
“But they are being treated like pipelines … you cannot stop rivers from flowing through their natural course or else be ready to deal with nature’s fury,” he lamented.
The expert added that the geography of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Gilgit-Baltistan was rapidly changing, which meant that all the water up north would come downstream.
PM orders ministers to visit affected areas
In view of the risky situation, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif issued special directives to the federal ministers to visit the affected areas in Punjab and monitor the relief operations, the government said on X.
The premier also ordered NDMA Chairman Lt Gen Inam Haider Malik to remain in contact with the Punjab PDMA and provide full assistance in evacuating people to safe locations.
“Relief operations should be further accelerated, and coordination between institutions should be intensified. The process of immediately relocating people living along river passages to safe locations should be made more effective and swift,” PM Shehbaz was quoted as saying.
In a post on X, state-run PTV News said the army was carrying out rescue and relief operations in Lahore, Faisalabad, Okara, Kasur, Sialkot and Narowal since last night.
Prominent businessman Jahangir Khan Tareen, who quit politics last year, pledged to donate more than Rs20 million for flood victims in Lodhran.
“They will not be left alone,” Tareen asserted in a statement, calling for “unity in the face of the natural disaster”.
He directed his team to work in collaboration with Rescue 1122 and the Lodhran district administration and help with relief efforts.
More rain expected across Punjab as Sialkot breaks 49-year record
In an update at 11am, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) said rain with strong winds and thunderstorms was likely to continue in Narowal, Sialkot, Lahore, Kasur, Jhelum, Hafizabad, Gujranwala, Gujarat, Sheikhupura, Azad Kashmir and surrounding areas in the next one to three hours.
The PMD advised the public to take precautionary measures and stay updated.
In the last 24 hours till 9am, Sialkot witnessed the highest amount of rainfall in the last 49 years, the PMD said.
During the 24-hour period, the city recorded 363.5 millimetres of rain, surpassing 339.7mm it received on Aug 6, 1976, the PMD added.
