Water shortage termed artificial [1]

The Sindh Water Committee has expressed concern over acute shortage of water in Sindh and said the shortage is artificial and being used to victimise the province and destroy its economy and agriculture sector. The committee, which met here on Wednesday, demanded that the government immediately close the Chashma-Jehlum link canal, ensure supply of water to Sindh and appoint an international tribunal to solve water controversy between Sindh and Punjab.
