RESOLUTION: ON PROTECTING THE SANCTITY OF WATER APPORTIONMENT ACCORD-1991 & INDUS RIVER SYSTEM AUTHORITY (IRSA) ACT- 1992
Water Apportionment Accord 1991 and the IRSA Act 1992 are tools to lay down the basis for the Regulation and Distribution of surface water amongst the provinces according to the allocation and policies spelt out in Water Apportionment Accord 1991.
Therefore, any change in IRSA Act 1992 tantamounts to change in Water Accord-1992. It will not be accepted by the people of Sindh. This will be against the democratic spirit of Federation.
Sindh Demands that the Water Apportionment Accord-1991 must be implemented in true letter and spirit and do not change/amend IRSA Act 1992.
