Pakistan Chenab River Water Level: Pakistan is currently going through the most severe water crisis in history. The biggest reason behind this is believed to be a huge cut in water received by India under the Indus Water Treaty. According to local water experts, the flow of Chenab river flowing from India has decreased by 92%, causing crops in large agricultural areas like Punjab and Sindh to be on the verge of havoc.

Water in Chenab river also below ‘dead level’
According to reports, on May 29, the Chenab river flow was 98,200 cusecs, which is now only 7,200 cusecs. The water level has fallen so much that it has gone below the ‘dead level’, due to which more than 40% of the kharif crops have dried up and the rest is also facing a crisis.

6.5 crore people affected, farmers will travel to Islamabad
About 6.5 crore people from Punjab and Sindh depend on Chenab for irrigation. Farmers’ organizations, troubled by water scarcity and wastage of crops, have now warned of Islamabad. Farmer leaders say that the government is not giving any relief and no clear diplomatic steps were taken against India.

Loss of Rs 4,500 billion, ground water also ends
According to the data of the agricultural organization ‘PRA’ and irrigation department, Pakistan has so far lost Rs 4,500 billion due to lack of rain and water supply. The ground water level has also fallen severely and thousands of tubewells have dried up.

Dam also dried, feared food crisis
The water level of major water sources like Mangla Dam has also gone below the danger line. Experts believe that if this situation persists, Pakistan may face a serious national food crisis.

Water requests from India: Pakistan sent four letters
Pakistan has sent four formal letters to India so far to restore the Indus Water Treaty and supply water. According to NDTV report, one of these letters was sent after “Operation Sindoor”. All these letters were sent by Syed Ali Murtaza, Secretary, Ministry of Water Resources of Pakistan, to the Ministry of Water Power, which was later sent to the Ministry of External Affairs (Mea).

Farmers’ anger over ‘Green Pakistan’
The farmers of Punjab and Sindh are describing projects like ‘Green Pakistan’ by the government as a paper fraud, saying that “there is no greenery of paper, but water is needed in the fields.” Farmers allege that the government is only focusing on showy schemes, while the real need is to improve the irrigation system.

Flood in pok: Pakistan is scared of India’s action after the Pahalgam terror attack. Pakistan is currently facing many fronts. On one hand, India has taken many tough decisions about Pakistan, while now there is going to be a nature in the neighboring country.

Chenab river increased water level

After heavy rains in Akhnoor sector of Jammu and Kashmir, the water level of Chenab river has increased on Friday (2 May 2025), causing floods in many areas of Pakistan. According to the Meteorological Department, heavy rains are likely in Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Gilgit-Baltistan, Muzaffarabad, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand during May 1-6.

India left the water of Jhelum river

On the last month (April 26, 2025) from India, water was released into the Jhelum River in Hattin Bala area of ​​Muzaffarabad, Pakistan. Because of this, the Muzaffarabad administration announced a water emergency. Due to release of water in the Jhelum river, there was a fierce flood in Muzaffarabad. The Jhelum river suddenly flooded due to water entering Chakothi from Anantnag district in Uri, causing fear and panic among the local people.

India took many big decisions against Pakistan

After the Pahalgam terror attack, India has taken major decisions including suspending the Indus Water Treaty. Pakistan is so scared at this time that it has been singing in front of the United Nations and America to avoid India. India said that by targeting Jammu and Kashmir, the terrorism across the border by Pakistan obstructs India’s rights under the Indus Water Treaty. Under this treaty signed in 1960, Eastern rivers Sutlej, Beas and Ravi were allotted to India and Western rivers Indus, Jhelum and Chenab to Pakistan.
