KARACHI Punjab government will not let go of "a single drop" of water, said Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah on Friday. Responding with Sindhs perspective on the water dispute, senior PPP leader Taj Haider told DawnNews that the 1991 Water accord must be followed to resolve the current crisis.
           
Taj Haider said that the construction of a power plant on Chashma canal is an unnecessary hindrance and should be removed immediately. He said there are 360 other canals in Punjab where such a power plant could be constructed.

He said that 8,000 cusecs of water that should be received by Sindh is stolen from Kotri barrage every year, adding that this transfer should be made through Guddu barrage instead.

He said that the lack of fresh water is harming agricultural land in Thatta and Badin districts.
