LARKANA, Aug 8: The commissioner of Larkana asked personnel of the National Highway Authority to repair the bridge over the Right Bank Outfall Drain-III and restore traffic between the towns of Shahdadkot and Qubo Saeed Khan.

A portion of the bridge was washed away four days ago when water pressure mounted due to rains in Jhal Magsi, Balochistan. Larkana Commissioner Ghulam Mustafa Phull issued the directives during a visit of the spot (Bhandri Wandh) where the breach had occurred.—BoC
