    diverted to Punjab, however Punjab made a
    promise not to do that
    ii. Electricity produced will maximumly be supplied
    to Punjab
    iii. Large scale evacuation will result in the
    displacement of people
    iv. Large area of noshehra will be submerged and
    would suffer from salinity and waterlogging

    6
    PUNJAB AND SINDH kbd has been strongly opposed by Sindh on following
    CONFLICTS grounds
    i. Water supply to Sindh will be reduced because of
    irrigation demands of Punjab and kpk
    ii. Coastal area of Sindh would turn into arid saline
    desert which ultimately minimize coastal
    mangroves and fish production
    iii. Downstream flow of indus will be reduced to
    cause the water shortage to the irrigated areas of
    lower Sindh
    iv. Reduce water supply to manchar and haleji lakes
