How corruption became reason for Destruction of Manchhar Lake, Pakistan

Manchar Lake is located in Sindh Province of Pakistan and is spread over 250 square kilometers In the past, it was one of the largest freshwater lakes of Pakistan, a large and diverse species of fish could be found beneath its surface. Seasonally, Siberian migratory birds would flock to its shores. But the fish, the birds, and the people are all leaving now.
The Problem:
Trouble first arrived when the Lake began to dry up. Water in the Aral Wah and Danstar Wah – two major canals that flow directly into the Lake - reduced. Separately, as weather patterns were affected by climate change and less than normal rainfall was received in the Kirthar hills, the water level further plunged.
The last nail in the coffin was hammered in by the Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), which constructed the Right Bank Outfall Drain (RBOD-1) with the funding of the World Bank. This drain is designed to carry toxic wastewater of industries and agricultural lands from Northern Sindh districts to the Sea but WAPDA didn’t complete the project and they ended up outfall drain into Manchar lake.

The Solution:
Complete the remaining part of ROBD and divert toxic water to the sea as per the initial plan.
Let’s get loud & write to higher authorities of Sindh, Pakistan & the world bank for completion of RBOD, & restoration of Machnar lake as a freshwater lake. Our voices will make a difference.
