Manchar Lake
Pakistan is going through a major crisis. The incessant monsoon rains have submerged a third of the country. Now, the authorities on Sunday, in a pre-planned manner, breached the country’s largest freshwater lake in an attempt to save the densely populated areas even as more than 100,000 will be displaced due to the breach.
The water level in the Manchar lake, located west of the Indus river, had reached alarmingly dangerous levels and if the strategic decision was not taken, it could have flooded the country’s southern Sindh province.
