Flood – Who caused devastation in Sindh?

by Munawar Ali

We know that this is not the only flood in history. On one hand the corrupt govenment officials put all funds in their pockets and [according to conspiracy theories] on the other hand some selfish politicians artificially cut the Torri bund just to save their lands and some say to save Pano Aqil cantonment. These leaders have drowned and destroyed whole Sindh now. There is Ali Wahan site from where normally water is discharged in case of such floods, which would have caused least damage to the life of people and few towns affected. Now whole of upper Sindh is drowned and still continuing, spreading to all of Sindh. This is very disturbing that for personal gains of couple of politicians whole Sindh has been destroyed.

    Its not conspiracy theory it is a fact that Tori Bund was deliberately breached just for the reasons u mentioned, and without contemplating/ estimating the cost in terms of migrations, human suffering, loss of property, standing crops, infrastructure, diseases and post flood trauma, rehabilitation and sufferings like food shortage etc. whoever has done it has committed a crime. It must be probed properly through independent judicial commission constituted by Chief Justice of Pakistan.
