Dadu
Negligence of Sindh government has ruined the beauty of country’s largest lake of sweet water, Manchar Lake.
Known as a paradise for fishermen, the Manchar Lake, situated in Sindh’s district of Dadu has now been transformed into a ‘lake of toxic water’ and often being called as ‘dead lake’.
The water of the lake has turned that much toxic now that fish breeding has stopped, while the adjoining farmers are finding it difficult to cultivate their agriculture lands. The Right Bank out for Drain (RBOD) project initiated by the PPP led the provincial government several years ago to save the lake from being contaminated by the release of toxic water is also closed. The recent monsoon rains and flood in the region also badly affected the fishermen living along Manchar Lake who are already finding it difficult.
