India releases more water into Pakistan rivers without notice

India's continued water aggression has intensified, as it released additional water into rivers from the Salal Dam, Nangal Dam, and Harike Barrage without prior notice.

The released water is expected to flow into the Chenab and Sutlej rivers, raising concerns of worsening flood conditions at Ganda Singh Wala and surrounding areas in Pakistan.

According to PDMA sources, India has once again released water from three key points without informing Pakistan, heightening the risk of flooding across Punjab.

The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) confirmed that further water discharge from Salal Dam, Nangal Dam, and Harike Barrage is underway. As a result, a significant surge is expected in the Chenab River downstream of the Salal Dam.

PDMA reported that official sources had issued a high-flood warning today at Harike on the Sutlej River, but no formal notifications were given for water releases from other points.

Sources added that India has opened the spillways of Nangal Dam — located about 15 kilometers from Bhakra Dam on the Sutlej — releasing a substantial volume of water.

Flow from the Harike Barrage has also increased, prompting India to issue a high-flood alert at the location.

Reports indicate that up to 350,000 cusecs of water could be released from Nangal Dam, potentially worsening flood conditions at Ganda Singh Wala.

PDMA stated that no formal warning has been received from India regarding water release into the Chenab or other rivers, nor any official communication about the opening of Salal Dam's spillways.

According to the DG PDMA, on the instructions of Punjab Chief Minister, district administrations and relevant agencies are on high alert.

PDMA, IRSA, and the irrigation department are closely monitoring the situation and will issue timely alerts to both the administration and the public in case of any potential water surges.
