HYDERABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party Sindh president Nisar Ahmed Khuhro has hit out at Indus River System Authority’s (Irsa) repeatedly terming water releases downstream Kotri Barrage as ‘wastage’ despite International Panel of Experts’ (IPoE) advice made in a study in 2005 that 5,000 cusecs per day water flows are to be released downstream Kotri.
Khuhro said at a press conference in the dry riverbed of Indus in Kotri downstream on Wednesday evening that Irsa was trying to use the same language which Gen Musharraf used in the past.
