Plan to add six more canals to Indus River needs national consensus

November, 21 2024
The federal government has proposed the addition of six more canals to the Indus River. However, if this initiative proceeds without consensus and fails to address the concerns of Sindh and Balochistan provinces, it risks becoming controversial like the Kala Bagh Dam project.
It is imperative to engage all stakeholders and build a broad consensus on this matter to ensure the success of the Green Pakistan Project. Such an approach will facilitate the agricultural sector and contribute to sustainable development.
Imposing a unilateral decision on the entire country could have adverse effects on political dynamics, economic stability, and the federal structure. Collaboration and mutual agreement are essential for achieving long-term progress and federal stability.
