Planning and Development Minister Ahsan Iqbal has warned that Thar like Droughts may hit half of the country if new water reservoirs are not built on a priority basis.

He said the planning commission would hold a Pakistan Water Summit at Islamabad on March 20 in collaboration with the ministry of water and power to work out a water policy for proactive development and management of water resources.

Addressing an international workshop on “safe connected communities against floods through remote sensing and GIS tools, organised by Unesco and Suparco here on Wednesday, the minister said: “Water shortage may turn out to be a worse crisis than the ongoing energy crisis as a phenomenon of climate change may reduce water availability up to 40 per cent, pushing Pakistan to be a water-starved country.”
