| Abstract: | The article focuses on the contrasting perceptions of flooding in the Indus Delta, where residents view floods as essential for ecological and agricultural rejuvenation, unlike the upstream perspective that sees them as threats. Local residents, such as Ghani Katyar, express concern over the sluggish flow of the river, which lacks the silt necessary for revitalizing the delta's ecosystems. Environmental expert Naseer Memon emphasizes the need for a sustained water flow to support the delta's biodiversity and agriculture, highlighting the detrimental effects of dams on migratory fish species like Pallo (Indus Shad). The article advocates for a holistic approach to river management that considers the interconnectedness of the river system with local communities and ecosystems. [Extracted from the article] |
