Pakistan To Face Water Crisis

PAKISTAN is at number 17 on the list of countries facing a water crisis. The Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources has written to the federal government stating that a grave crisis will emerge if immediate action is not taken.
The PCRWR report states that the country will run out of water by 2025 if sizable reservoirs are not developed. At independence, the per capita availability of water was over 5,000 cubic metres, which has shrunk to 1,000 cubic meters today.
Agriculture is the backbone of this country with more than 21 per cent of the GDP coming from the sector. Of the country’s exports, 70 pc are from the agriculture sector that depends upon water.
According to the Pakistan Water Partnership, the total available surface water is about 153 million-acre-feet (MAF) while the total ground water reserves are approximately 24 MAF. The population of Pakistan in 2030 is expected to be around 240 million. It is estimated that the country will have to face a shortage of 31 MAF of water by 2025 which would pose a grave threat to the economy and stability.
