Water conundrum

The country is facing an increasingly dire water shortage due to a combination of internal and external factors. Several factors have contributed to the worsening water situation in Pakistan, including the lack of effective action, inadequate infrastructure, and institutional shortcomings. Although numerous policies have been drafted, strategic implementation remains absent. To address this crisis, sustainable solutions must be pursued through long-term planning.

At the individual level, a conscious effort must be made to avoid wasting water. Another key strategy is strengthening institutions that are responsible for implementing water management plans effectively and to adopt advanced technologies in irrigation systems.
