Dialogue on water crisis in Pakistan

A dialogue between two friends on water crisis and need for constructing dams in Pakistan

Asad:    Aslaam-o-Alikum

Umer:   Waalikum-us-salam

Asad:    How are you dear?

Umer:   I am fine but a little bit worried.

Asad:    What is the reason behind your tension?

Umer:   I have just read a report of IMF about Pakistan.

Asad:    What the report says anything serious?

Umer:   It says that water scarcity problem is getting severe in Pakistan.

Asad:    Yes, I have also heard much of this problem; Pakistan is facing water shortage nowadays.

Umer:   The most of all is that by 2025 this problem will take its acute form.

Asad:    Yes this issue has been debated much in media for the some months.

Umer:   The population of Pakistan is increasing rapidly, water resources are being divide among more people.

Asad:    Yes, and they do not use water carefully, mostly people do not know the importance of water in life.

Umer:   Yes, you are right, but our past governments have nothing done to solve this problem.

Asad:    Can we say that our politicians have done only politics on this issue, they have politicized this problem.

Umer:   Yes, it is also a fault our politicians also, they did nothing in this regard.

Asad:    One thing more, that we have not constructed any more dam after Terbela and Mangla.

Umer:    It is a very sad and pathetic situation, Mangla and Terbela dams are also losing their water storage    capacity.

Asad:    Yes, here you are right, for being used constantly; they have reached their dead level.

Umer:   But you should not be more worried as the present government has already working on this issue on emergency level.

Asad:    But this project would take some long time for its completion.

Umer:   Yes, no doubt, but we should not waste water, we should use it carefully.

Asad:    Right, otherwise the water shortage problem would get severe and it would be difficult to handle.

Umer:   We, the Pakistanis, are a brave nation and we know how to grapple with every problem.

Asad:    We hope so, ok, I remember some urgent piece of work and I must leave now.

Umer:   OK, take care, Allah Hafiz

Asad:    Thank you brother and Allah Hafiz
