Water wasted of Pakistani rivers into Arabian Sea


 Pakistan had wasted 105 Million Acre Feet (MAF) of rain and flood water into Arabian Sea last year, 2010, because of lack of water reservoirs and awareness among the people to save and utilize precious water resource . This water was manifold more than the capacity of Tarbela Dam and depicted a grim picture of the situation.
Water both for drinking and irrigation may become a big problem in the future as the demand is growing but no new water reservoirs are imminent and the already available water reservoirs are losing their capacity continuously . Pakistan and India go to war if they could not solve their differences over the water of the rivers that flow from India into Pakistan.
This was stated by Professor Dr. Iqrar Ahmad Khan VC University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) while addressing the inaugural ceremony of a project on “Social research to foster effective collaboration and strengthen pro-poor values” at New Senate Hall UAF here on Thursday.
The function was organized by the Department of Rural Sociology UAF in collaboration with Agriculture Sector Linkage Program .

Moonis Elahi , Corruption and money laundering in NICL scam

 National Insurance Company Limited (NICL) scam has taken a new turn as its chief investigator Add. DG FIA Zafar Ahmed Qureshi in his fortnight report submitted before the Supreme Court has stated that money was laundered in the mega corruption scandal and Moonis Elahi, one of the accused, was allegedly involved in it.
Additional Director General of the Federal Investigation Agency  Zafar Ahmed Qureshi on September 22, 2011 had submitted the progress report of the investigations conducted so far in this case before the Supreme Court on the earlier directives.
The report has not yet been signed by the DG of the Federal Investigation Agency  Tahseen Anwar Shah.
The  report consists of 250 pages and reveals that Mr. Moonis Elahi, MPA Punjab Assembly and son of PML-Q leader as well as Federal Minister Ch. Pervez Elahi, has laundered the money in the land purchase scam of NICL to break the trail of Rs 320 million that he allegedly benefitted from the multi-billion-rupee scandal. These Rs 320 million were deposited in various bank accounts of Mr Elahi and his wife Tehreem  during the NICL’s purchase of land.

This was the reason that PMLQ joined the government to save Moonis as they were very much against joing the govt and did not join it for three years then thier weakness came in the hands of Zardari and he is the evil genius to play such games. The govt tried to not to let Zafar Qureshi to investigate the case but they had to as the SC was very determined to fight corruption for which it needs great appreciation.
