Punjab is facing one of the most severe flood emergencies in recent history as water levels continue to rise in the Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej rivers, displacing millions across the province.
Punjab Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Director General Irfan Ali Kathia warned that the situation could worsen within the next 24 hours.
According to PDMA, the Chenab River is flowing at 215,000 cusecs at Khanki Headworks and 203,000 cusecs at Qadirabad, while discharge at Trimmu Headworks has spiked to 299,000 cusecs. At Chiniot bridge, flows of 282,000 cusecs were reported, with officials terming the situation “stable.”
A discharge of 700,000 cusecs is expected at Trimmu on September 1, while 800,000 cusecs may pass through Head Muhammadwala. Severe flooding is also likely at the Sher Shah Bridge.
By September 2, the Ravi River is expected to merge with the Chenab River, putting Khanewal and Kabirwala at high risk.
In Multan, a large number of people remain in riverine areas along the Chenab River. Despite the administration cutting off electricity for three days, residents have refused to leave. A major flood wave in the Chenab River is expected to reach the city by tonight.
The Ravi has recorded 204,000 cusecs at Head Balloki, though flows at Shahdara and Ravi Siphon have declined. The Sutlej River, meanwhile, remains in high flood with 253,000 cusecs at Ganda Singh Wala, 154,000 cusecs at Head Sulemanki, 68,000 cusecs at Head Islam and 88,000 cusecs at Panjnad Headworks.

At Uch Sharif, authorities said floodwaters from the Sutlej, Chenab and Ravi rivers will reach Head Panjnad—the last barrage in South Punjab—within the next 72 hours before merging into the Indus River. With a capacity of 865,000 cusecs, the barrage has been placed on high alert. Officials said floodwaters could impact the Bahawalpur and Muzaffargarh districts, where evacuation announcements have already been made.
In Muzaffargarh, Deputy Commissioner Usman Tahir Jappa said the Chenab’s flood surge is expected to enter the district between September 2 and 3. In anticipation, 105 schools across the district have been closed until September 6, while a scheduled polio vaccination campaign has been postponed. Floods are feared to affect 104 villages, with 18 relief camps set up for displaced residents.
Schools to reopen in Lahore
Lahore Deputy Commissioner Syed Musa Raza has issued a notification announcing that all schools across the city will reopen from September 1.
According to the notification, schools established in flood-affected areas and those functioning as relief camps will remain closed for the time being.
The district administration advised parents and students to stay in contact with school administrations. It added that all schools must strictly follow the guidelines issued by the School Education Department.

LAHORE/MULTAN/KARACHI:
The country is staring down the barrel of one of its most precarious flooding phases in recent years, with officials warning of catastrophic inundation in Sindh and Balochistan after weeks of devastation across Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
Officials said nearly 1.5 million people have already been affected in Punjab, where at least 28 people have died, and further dangerous surges are expected in the coming days.
The flooding, fuelled by heavy rains and overflowing rivers, has already left a trail of destruction, forcing mass evacuations, submerging entire villages and wiping out thousands of acres of crops. Rescue teams, backed by the army, are in a race against the clock to move people and livestock to higher ground.
Large swaths of Punjab remain under water, particularly in Kasur, Multan, Sialkot, Rajanpur, Pakpattan and Chishtian. Three transboundary rivers cutting through Punjab have swollen to exceptionally high levels, impacting more than 2,300 villages.
Sharing official figures with the media, Senior Punjab Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb informed that 30 people had lost their lives while 2,038 villages across Punjab had been inundated by floodwaters from the Chenab, Ravi, and Sutlej rivers, affecting more than 1.5 million people. Of these, over 481,000 individuals have been safely relocated. She added that 1,169 villages were impacted by the River Chenab, 462 by the Ravi, and 391 by the Sutlej.
Aurangzeb said that 511 relief camps and 351 medical camps were operating round-the-clock, where 6,373 people were currently housed. To protect livelihoods, over 405,000 livestock had also been rescued and are being treated at 321 veterinary camps.
She further informed that the number of boats deployed in rescue missions has been increased to 808, enabling the safe evacuation of 68,477 people in just 36 hours.
She said that climate change has now turned into a serious disaster, making the introduction of advanced early warning systems indispensable. She added that once recovery is complete, a comprehensive anti-encroachment drive will be launched, and an integrated long-term strategy will be prepared to minimize future risks.
The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) described the situation as the province's worst flooding in decades. PDMA Director General Irfan Ali Kathia said the Sutlej River overflowed after a breach at India's Madhopur Headworks, sending massive volumes of water toward Pakistan. Kasur recorded its highest water levels since 1955.
"Protecting Kasur city has become a major challenge," Kathia warned, adding that communication with Indian authorities on water releases has been "insufficient and unreliable".
At Ganda Singh Wala in Kasur, water levels have begun to recede but remain dangerously high at more than 300,000 cusecs. At Head Sulemanki, flows exceed 100,000 cusecs, while Head Islam faces rising threats in the next 24 hours.
In Multan, authorities are bracing for a surge of more than 700,000 cusecs at Head Muhammad Wala, where controlled breaches may be required. Evacuations are underway in 138 nearby settlements, with more than 300,000 people expected to be displaced.
Sixty-four villages in Shujabad and Jalalpur Pirwala remain under imminent threat. Relief camps have been established in the district to provide food, water, and temporary shelter.
In other parts of Punjab, floodwaters have cut off land access to villages in Sialkot, Pasrur, Hafizabad and Pakpattan. In Chishtian, a breach in the Sutlej embankment allowed water to inundate homes and farmland, affecting nearly 50 settlements. In Sialkot's Bajwat area, 85 villages have lost road connectivity, leaving residents stranded.
The Ravi and Chenab rivers are also under pressure. While Lahore's immediate threat has eased as Ravi's levels dropped, the situation remains volatile downstream in Okara, Sahiwal and Toba Tek Singh.
Persistent rainfall is worsening conditions in the flood-hit districts. In Jhelum, overflowing streams have inundated neighbourhoods, while low-lying areas in Sheikhupura and Chiniot are struggling with water accumulation.
An overflowing stormwater drain in Sialkot's Badiana forced road closures and flooded nearby towns. The ZafarwalLehri road was washed away, severing access to dozens of villages. Officials reported thousands of acres of rice crops destroyed.
NDMA warns of Indus flooding
The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has issued high-level alerts for the Indus River, warning of extreme flooding between September 3 and 6.
At Panjnad Headworks, flows of up to 950,000 cusecs are expected, with potential breaches pushing water levels toward 900,000 cusecs. Guddu Barrage could face flows ranging from 800,000 to 1.1 million cusecs, posing grave risks to low-lying areas downstream.
"Severe high-level flooding is likely in the Indus," the NDMA said, cautioning that strong upstream currents could trigger a cascading disaster downstream in Sindh and Balochistan.
Sindh is preparing for fresh surges in the Indus, while Balochistan is bracing for floods expected to enter the province through Jaffarabad, Usta Muhammad, Sohbatpur, and Rojhan by September 2.
Sindh's Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon has warned that floods from Punjab are expected to enter Sindh by the night of September 2 or 3
Speaking in a media briefing in Karachi, Sharjeel stated that all departments, including PDMA, are prepared and on high alert to manage any flood-related emergencies.
The minister estimated that the floods could affect approximately 1.65 million people, including 1,657 villages, 167 union councils, and over 273,000 families. Memon further mentioned that 15 districts are located along the riverbanks, and 551 relief camps have been set up to be activated in case of an emergency.
Balochistan Irrigation Minister Sadiq Umrani said a camp office has been established in Naseerabad and that provincial authorities are coordinating closely with Sindh. "We are monitoring the situation hour by hour," Umrani said.
According to the PDMA, the Chenab River at Marala is flowing at 111,000 cusecs, while Khanki is recording 170,000 cusecs. At Qadirabad, the flow has risen to 171,000 cusecs, and at Trimmu, 146,000 cusecs have been reported with levels continuing to rise.
The Ravi is also surging, with flows of 78,000 cusecs at Jassar, 138,000 cusecs at Shahdara, where water levels are now gradually receding, and nearly 200,000 cusecs at Balloki, which remain on the rise.
At Sidhnai, inflows stand at 32,000 cusecs against an outflow of 18,000 cusecs. The Sutlej has swelled to a critical level, with Ganda Singh Wala recording 303,000 cusecs and rising, while Sulemanki is holding steady at 138,000 cusecs.
Evacuations and relief efforts
Authorities have evacuated thousands of families from Kasur, Multan, Hafizabad and Chishtian, while rescue teams are using boats to move residents in hard-hit districts. Relief camps have been set up across Punjab and Balochistan to provide food, drinking water, medical assistance, and shelter.
However, displaced residents in Multan and Rajanpur complained of shortages of boats and limited arrangements for moving livestock. Farmers in Sialkot and Pakpattan said they had lost entire harvests of rice and sugarcane.
Despite the scale of the disaster, officials stressed that timely evacuations have prevented larger casualties. "So far, 28 lives have been lost in Punjab," Kathia said, "but the danger is far from over".
Pakistan, still recovering from last year's catastrophic monsoon floods that affected more than 30 million people, faces another major humanitarian and economic test.
Meteorologists warned that the next 48 hours are critical for southern Punjab, Sindh and northern Balochistan as water levels peak in the Chenab and Indus rivers.
Government officials urged residents in flood-prone areas to move immediately to relief camps and higher ground.
"This is a national emergency," the NDMA said in a statement, urging cooperation between provincial governments, the military, and local communities.

标题:At least 5 killed in rain-related incidents across KP over last 24 hours

正文:

Monsoon rains across Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa have claimed the lives of five people — four of them children — and injured another five over the last 24 hours, according to a KP Provincial Disaster Management Authority’s report.
Heavy rains continue to lash parts of KP as it reels from catastrophic floods that ravaged the province earlier this month, leaving 406 dead in its wake.
On August 30, the provincial capital Peshawar received 41 millimetres of rain, whereas heavy rainfall in the catchment areas in Khyber district also swelled the Budni and other nullahs, submerging low-lying areas along Warsak Road, Safia Town, Regi Model Town and Nasir Bagh, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD).
As per the KP PDMA report, as a result of the rain, “two were reported dead in Peshawar — both children — including a child who was swept away by a flash flood and another three-month-old infant who died as a result of a roof collapse incident.”
Five people sustained injuries in separate infrastructure collapse incidents.
Meanwhile, heavy rain in upper South Waziristan claimed the lives of three people from the same family after the roof of their house collapsed. The dead include two children and a woman.
According to the PDMA report, a total of six houses have been damaged due to rain and urban flooding, including three that were destroyed completely.
In a statement, the PDMA spokesperson said, “PDMA has directed respective district administrations to intensify relief efforts and ensure timely assistance to victims.”
“PDMA’s Emergency Operation Centre is fully functional,” the spokesperson added, urging people to contact PDMA’s helpline at 1700 in case of emergency or weather updates.
According to the PMD, Cherat received 165mm of rain over the past 24 hours, while Kakul received 54mm, Peshawar 41mm, Balakot 14mm, Malam Jabba 10mm, Bannu 5mm, and Dera Ismail Khan 4mm.
The latest data from the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) showed that at least 853 people have died and over 1,000 have been injured in rain-related incidents and flash flooding since the start of the Monsoon season on June 25.
Monsoon rains, which fall across the region from June to September every year, continue to lash many parts of the country. Starting in late June, Monsoon rains have wreaked havoc across the country in the past month by triggering deadly floods, landslides and displacement, particularly in vulnerable, poorly drained, or densely populated areas.

• Mass evacuations underway due to exceptional floods, downpours in Punjab
• Authorities execute controlled breaches along Chenab River to save critical barrages, bridges, and major urban centres
• Urban flooding in KP areas leaves neighbourhoods submerged; minor dies in Peshawar
• Ghizer district faces increased flood risk due to glacier melt, PMD issues alert
LAHORE/ PESHAWAR / GILGIT: While severe flooding in Sutlej, Ravi, and Chenab rivers prompted mass evacuations across Punjab, the situation aggravated due to a renewed spell of downpour and a barrage breach in India, leaving Sindh to revise flood displacement estimate, now projecting over 1.65 million people at risk along both banks of the Indus River.
In the country’s northern parts, glacier melting threatened further floods in Gilgit-Baltistan’s Ghizer district as per Met Office warning and some Khyber Pakhtunkhwa areas, including Peshawar, recorded urban flooding amid heavy rains.
Authorities in Punjab are grappling with what they call an unprecedented hydrological crisis, as the Flood Forecasting Division (FFD) and Punjab Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) report dangerously high water levels across key river sites, with several nearing or exceeding critical levels.
Millions of residents in low-lying areas of Punjab are being relocated as authorities struggle to manage what officials describe as an unprecedented hydrological crisis.
The combined inflow from the Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej rivers continues to pose a severe threat to downstream regions, including Multan and Muzaffargarh. The flows from the three rivers are now halfway through Punjab.
At 6:30pm, the water levels have risen to 524.20 feet, dangerously close to the critical threshold of 526 feet at the Rivaz Bridge on the Chenab River.
Water flow
According to the FFD data as of 12am on Sunday, the water flow at Marala and Khanki headworks on the Chenab River was 95,152 cusecs and 229,100 cusecs, respectively.
Qadirabad Headworks was steady at 203,862 cusecs, and so was Trimmu Headworks at 184,108 cusecs.
The Ravi River is also exhibiting alarming trends. Balloki Headworks was steady at an extremely high volume of 211,395 cusecs, while the flow at Shahdara was falling and stood at 90,500 cusecs. Jassar was also steady at 95,580 cusecs while Sidhnai was rising at 30,481 cusecs.
The Sutlej River continues to flow at exceptionally high levels. Ganda Sing Wala was steady at 253,068 cusecs, Sulemanki Headworks at 154,219 cusecs and Islam Headworks at 68,058 cusecs. Panjnad Headworks was rising at 73,166 cusecs.
On the Indus River, the outflow was recorded at 344,723 cusecs at Guddu Barrage, 256,660 at Sukkur Barrage and 236,223 at Kotri Barrage — all being in the “low flood” category.
Dykes breached
In a high-stakes operation to manage an unprecedented flood wave, provincial authorities were executing controlled breaches of protective dykes along the Chenab River at several locations. The strategy was followed to sacrifice thousands of acres of land to save critical barrages, bridges, and major urban centres in Jhang, Hafizabad, Sheikhupura, Nankana, and Kasur.
Around 850,000 cusecs of water were expected to reach Trimmu Barrage on Saturday night, and a controlled breach of the protective dyke was planned to save the headworks if the water levels exceed its capacity.
The authorities also installed ammunition in two flood dykes near Rangpur and Head Muhammad Wala, in case the flow increased to threaten Multan and Muzaffargarh within a day or two.
Speaking to the media, Punjab Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Director General Irfan Ali Kathia warned that very high to exceptionally high floods will continue in the Sutlej, Ravi and Chenab rivers until Sept 3.
According to the Flood Forecasting Division, under the influence of a monsoon low over north Madhya Pradesh, heavy to very heavy rainfall with extremely heavy falls is expected over the upper catchments of the Sutlej, Bias and Ravi rivers from Sept 2-3.
Mr Kathia said that an exceptionally high flood level will continue in the Sutlej at Ganda Singh Wala, while the Chenab at Trimmu is expected to attain an exceptionally high flood level during Saturday night. He said that the Chenab at Panjnad is expected to attain a very high flood level on Sep 3.
The PDMA chief said floodwaters in Punjab’s rivers right now would meet at Head Panjnad on the night of Sept 4. “It will have a total intensity of 875,000-925,000 cusecs,” he said while speaking to the media.
He forecasted that the waters would then reach the Guddu barrage on Sept 6, with a high intensity of 975,000 to 1,050,000 cusecs due to possible rains.
He said that the floodwaters at Ganda Singh Wala on the Sutlej River right now would reach Head Sulemanki in the next 24-36 hours and “achieve a peak”. Water flow would increase at Head Islam near Vehari in the next 48-55 hours.
Noting that there had been more rain, Mr Kathia said more water flows had entered from India into the Chenab River, leading to a medium-level flood at Marala.
Meanwhile, evacuations in low-lying areas of Pindi Bhattian, Chiniot, Hafizabad, Alipur Chatha, Jhang, Sillanwali, Athara Hazari, Rungpur, Khanewal, Kabirwala, Multan, Shujaabad, Jalalpur Pirwala and Muzaffargarh are ongoing.
Multan Commissioner Aamir Karim Khan said that as many as 261,747 people were evacuated from the division, including 238,419 from Multan, 2,307 from Vehari, 17,068 from Khanewal and 3,953 from Lodhran. As many as 255,538 cattle were also evacuated.
The daily flood situation report, submitted to South Punjab Additional Chief Secretary and seen by Dawn, states that 478,270 people were affected and 514,434 acres of cropland were damaged due to flood in Dera Ghazi Khan and Bahawalpur divisions due to flood in Indus and Sutlej rivers. Over 267,683 acres of land were lost due to flooding in the Indus River in the DG Khan division.
Over 383,000 people and 140,000 livestock were evacuated, and 507 relief camps were established after a flood alert in the Chenab River.
1.65m people in Sindh at risk
Meanwhile, the Sindh government has revised its earlier assessment on potential displacement due to floods, now estimating that over 1.65 million people living on both the right and left banks of the Indus River are at risk.
Just a day earlier, the Provincial Disaster Management Authority informed Sindh’s chief minister that more than 52,000 families could face displacement due to high water flows.
However, Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, speaking at a press conference on Saturday, revised the figure, stating that the displacement risk could affect over 273,000 families, with 1,651 villages and 167 union councils at risk. He assured the public that the government was fully prepared to respond.
Also on Saturday, Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah was assured that all the barrages were under control and that all necessary safety measures had been implemented.
Flooding in Peshawar
According to the PMD, the provincial capital received 41 millimetres of rain, whereas heavy rainfall in the catchment areas in Khyber district also swelled the Budni and other nullahs, submerging low-lying areas along Warsak Road, Safia Town, Regi Model Town and Nasir Bagh.
Rain waters entered several houses in these areas, forcing the residents to leave their homes for safer places.
Rescue 1122 said that a roof collapse in the Nahaqi area on Charsadda Road left a minor girl dead, while a wall collapse in the Faqir Killay area of Warsak Road left a person injured.
Rescue 1122 spokesperson Bilal Ahmed Faizi said that rescuers evacuated 300 individuals to safety. He said that the operations engaged over 280 rescue personnel equipped with water rescue vans, disaster-response vehicles, fire engines and ambulances.
He said that relief efforts focused heavily on vulnerable regions, including Nasir Bagh Road, Warsak Road and Budhni. “Rescue teams utilised rubber boats to safely evacuate elderly citizens, women, and children, prioritising their protection. Loudspeaker announcements along water channels were made to advise people to stay vigilant and take precautionary measures,” he said.
Besides, he said that water levels at Budhni Nullah along Charsadda Road were gradually declining. Rescue 1122 teams have also been deployed in the Mian Gujar area.
KP’s Provincial Disaster Management Authority said that Budni nullah recorded medium-level floods after the rains. Water level in the nullah at Darmangi was recorded at 11,900 cusecs while Pir Bala stood at 9,000 cusecs.
In Khyber district, flash floods washed away a portion of the road in Jamrud as the region received torrential rains early on Saturday morning, suspending traffic on the Peshawar-Torkham Highway for several hours.
The road blockade also affected the integration of the returning Afghan nationals for nearly six hours at Torkham, as most vehicles carrying the Afghan returnees got stranded on the road at Katta Kushtha, where a portion of the road collapsed in gushing floodwaters.
The excessive rains and resulting floods in most water channels in Landi Kotal, Jamrud and Bara caused damage to houses, warehouses, shops and kiosks and swept away a motor car and damaging the boundary wall of a cricket academy in Bara.
Meanwhile, around two dozen students trapped in a flooded watercourse were rescued in the Lakki Marwat district on Saturday.
Meanwhile, KP Chief Minister Ali Amin Khan Gandapur directed officials to remain in the field until rescue and relief operations are complete and ensure the continuous presence of emergency teams until conditions return to normal.
According to the PMD, Cherat received 165mm of rain over the past 24 hours, while Kakul received 54mm, Peshawar 41mm, Balakot 14mm, Malam Jabba 10mm, Bannu 5mm, and Dera Ismail Khan 4mm.
Ghizer faces rising flood risk
The Provincial Emergency Operation Centre issued a “Risk of Excessive Glacier Melt in Ghizer” alert, stating that the temperature at the Darkut station in Yasin Valley had reached 35 degrees Celsius.
The PMD warned that this soaring temperature could lead to excessive glacier melt in the upper areas of Ghizer, heightening the risk of glacial floods, flash floods in streams and nullahs and potential inundation of low-lying settlements.
Resident Gul Sher told Dawn that people in these villages are living in tents without basic necessities. “We have no access to drinking water and our children’s education has been severely affected as schools have been damaged and roads to these institutions are blocked,” he said.
Ibrahim Shinwari in Khyber, Ghulam Mursalin Marwat in Lakki Marwat and Tahir Siddiqui in Karachi also contributed to this report

TOBA TEK SINGH: A high flood is currently passing through the river Ravi near Mull Fatyana in tehsil Kamalia, inundating 52 villages of Kamalia and Pirmahal tehsils. Two persons drowned in the floodwater of Chenab in Jhang.
District administration spokesperson Shahbaz Ansari told the media on Saturday that the number of affected people had risen to 80,154. So far, the district administration has shifted 66,639 people to safer locations.
According to him, rescue operations are supported by Civil Defence, Punjab Police and the army personnel and rescuers and health department teams have provided first aid to 685 people and arranged transport for the evacuation of 752 residents from the low-lying areas. The livestock department teams shifted 53,710 cattle to safer places while 3,471 animals were vaccinated.
“Currently, 220 people are residing in relief camps where they are being provided with all basic facilities along with fodder for their livestock,” Mr Ansari said.
Two drown in Chenab near Jhang
In Jhang district, due to heavy flooding in Chenab, the Punjab government has directed the food department to safeguard wheat stocks stored in flood-affected warehouses. Hundreds of tonnes of wheat stored in the warehouses located in low-lying and flood-hit areas are being shifted to the warehouses of the food department in Gojra.
Jhang district information officer Riaz Marth has confirmed that the shifting of wheat stocks is in progress and is being monitored by the district food controller Muhammad Ramzan.
The district administration claimed that all spurs in Jhang are safe and after blasting a spur near railways’ Rivaz Bridge, a breach was created due to which more than 100 rural localities and their crops had been submerged and the people and their animals had been evacuated.
Mr Marth said 46 government schools located in flood-affected areas had been closed. Two persons are feared drowned in flood water in Jhang district; however, Rescue 1122 or district administration have not confirmed their drowning.
A villager, Noor Muhammad, was crossing the floodwater near Sultan Bahu Bridge on Chenab but drowned. The rescue teams are searching his body.
Another man, Haji Naik Muhammad, saw a 12-year-old boy crossing floodwater near Shah Jewna fighting for his life and Naik jumped into water to save him. As a result, he got trapped in deep water and drowned while people saved the child’ life by throwing a tube of the tractor’s tyre.
