From Shower to Strom, The Monsoon dairies: The Beauty and Challenges of Pakistan's Rainy seasons
The monsoon season brings several benefits, but it can also lead to significant destruction. Excessive rainfall during this season often results in river floods, causing damage to agricultural fields, crops, dams, barrages, and other infrastructure. The 2022 monsoon season was particularly destructive, leading to the destruction of various infrastructures, fields, crops, and livestock, affecting thousands of people. Hundreds were left homeless and lost their lives. As a result, agricultural production and exports decreased, leading to a rise in unemployment, crime, and health-related issues.
The aim of this post is to raise awareness about the Monsoon floods. On 5 July 2024, I visited the river Panjokora. I observe an excessive increase in its flow. Today, once again I visited the river and saw that the river is increasing with time. This increase is due to the snow melting in the mountains and the Monsoon rain in northern areas. When the excessive water flow (floods) reaches the plain area it causes destruction in the plains. The given below are some pictures that I captured from river Panjkora. You can see the increase in flow in these pictures.
These pictures are captured on 5th July 2024
The given below pictures are captured on 11 July 2024
According to the Inter-Agency Monsoon contingency plan 2024, the monsoon of the current year can cause natural disasters. Pakistan is included in the list of 10 countries which is exposed to natural disasters.
It is requested that the government, NGO's and public of the Pakistan to take precautionary measure in order to reduced the social, economic, cultural, biological, and geological risks.
Thank you, friend!
