NDMA warns of potential flooding in Pakistan

Authorities have issued an alert as the National Disaster Management Authority warns of potential flooding in Pakistan. The alert comes in response to the forecast of moderate to heavy rainfall expected over the upper catchments of major rivers like Sutlej, Ravi, and Chenab, starting from tomorrow.

The National Emergencies Operation Center of NDMA has observed significant weather activity originating from the eastern side of India. This activity raises concerns about the likelihood of intense cloud bursts that could impact various areas in Pakistan.

Residents living near these rivers are advised to stay vigilant and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety. In the event of heavy rainfall, there is a risk of flash floods and overflowing rivers, which could pose a threat to communities in the affected regions.

• Avoid crossing flooded areas
• Stay tuned to local weather updates
• Prepare an emergency kit with essentials

It is crucial for everyone to stay informed and follow the guidance provided by local authorities to mitigate the risks associated with the impending weather conditions.

As the country braces for potential flooding, it is essential for individuals and communities to prioritize safety and preparedness. By staying alert and taking proactive measures, we can minimize the impact of natural disasters and protect lives and property.
