Bordering India means that as the neighbouring nation opens their floodgates—lahore comes to immediate threat.
The River Ravi rose to alarming levels on Tuesday, with authorities warning of possible flooding in Lahore’s low-lying areas, especially Shahdara. The residents in parts of the city are undergoing an anxious sense of panic as news of neighbouring regions drowning keeps pouring in. Areas like Park View Society, have been getting official evacuation notices.
According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), nearly 150,000 people have been evacuated across Punjab in anticipation of flooding after India released water into downstream rivers.
