The best way to reduce floods is to begin a massive reforestation campaign in the subcontinent. All nations in the region have lost their forest cover. Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, and Bangladesh.

@Ajay Pakistan needs to build some dams to store this precious water.

Need lots of common sense, none whatsoever available.

I see happiness on a few people's faces in the pictures above which simply made my day. Be happy Pakistanis :)

City planners need to plan better sewage system. Water reservoirs and dams need to be built.

Rain harvesting arrangements at micro level are the solution of our water shortage as well as flooding problem. If big dams are hard to build due to our scanty finances,

What about improving the sewerage infrastructure ? What is the point of building roads ? When there is no drainage! Where is the head of planning ? And where was his/ her head!

The amount water inundating on these roads shows how effective PML N govt has been without the presence of any local or district level administrations. When will people realize that these existing leaders are fooling them through stupid metro bus projects or motor ways. They don't want to relinquish power and authority from funds because these parliamentarians wants to make money. This parliamentary democracy produced nothing but contractors and sub contractors who can't make any legislation shut knows how to make money from corrupt practices. It's a sad sad situation to see smiling faces of people passing through filthy waters. They looked duped by these fraudulent leaders.

There is this thing called a drain and sewer, when will Pakistan invest in those? Wouldn't drains and sewers be better than metro buses?

@asif But mate, it won't get the political mileage :)

@zaku And India Needs to Destory The Dams That is Stopping Drinking Water to and Water for Irrigation to reach Pakistan.

@Nasr Indian Dams are for power generation. International tribunals has confirmed it but nobody in Pakistan wants to hear that. If it is flood then it is "India"; if it is drought then it is "India". No wonder Pakistan is not making any progress in Water Management. Because if the root cause of every problem is "India" then nothing Pakistan can do. BTW, I think it was in 70s that India started a canal system with quite a bit of Rain harvesting, to irrigate Haryana. Haryana used to be an arid land and now it is almost competing with Punjab for crops.

Tremendous Photos of rain coverage.

Same Leaders AND MORE OF THE SAME! While all over the World local services like water supply, sewerage, street lighting etc are provided to the citizens by well- established city/ town governments from local taxes & grants, in Pakistan this crucial tier of the governance is ignored & discouraged for various reasons- with obvious results.

@Naveed Akhtar ----- they really are very very street WATERY of course?
