The government has issued a serious warning about the rising risk of flood due to recent heavy rains and increasing river water levels. Authorities are urging people to stay alert and prepare for potential emergencies.
The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has called on provincial governments to strengthen their flood response plans. NDMA officials emphasized the need for early warning systems and timely communication to reduce the impact of floods on vulnerable communities.
Several districts located near major rivers, especially those downstream of large dams, are at high risk of flood. The authorities are closely monitoring river flows and weather forecasts to anticipate any sudden changes. Rescue teams and emergency workers have been deployed in these areas to ensure quick response in case of flooding.
The government has also instructed media outlets to provide continuous updates and flood alerts to keep the public well informed. This real-time information is crucial for people living in flood-prone zones to take necessary precautions.
Citizens are advised to avoid traveling through low-lying areas during heavy rainfalls and to follow all safety guidelines issued by local authorities. Families are encouraged to prepare emergency kits and plans to stay safe if floodwaters rise.
Officials stressed that proactive measures and timely action can significantly reduce the damage caused by floods. Efforts are underway to improve coordination between the National Disaster Management Authority, provincial disaster agencies, and rescue services.
The government continues to assess the situation and promises to provide updates regularly. The public is urged to remain vigilant and cooperate with authorities to stay safe during this flood risk period.
