As a result, the people of the city — especially its women who have to fetch water from distant areas — have been facing serious problems. “We have not been supplied water for over a week now,” said one of the residents. “The port city is facing acute water shortage as the main source of supply — the Akara Kaur (river) dam — has dried up and we cannot supply drinking water from there to the city and its adjoining areas,” said Shakeel Ahmed Baloch, who works as executive engineer for the provincial Public Health Department. He, however, added that arrangements were being made to supply water to the city from other sources. Th
