In Punjab, the flow in rivers and streams of Narowal, Sialkot, and Gujarat has increased, potentially rising to low-level flooding. In another post, NDMA has issued the precautionary measures regarding this situation.
“Avoid low-lying areas, stay away from rivers and streams, refrain from traveling in at-risk areas.”
NDMA officials say that there is a risk of flooding due to melting glaciers in some areas of Gilgit Baltistan, while heavy rains and urban flooding are also likely in areas of Azad Kashmir.
