Gojal: Lake drainage continues slowly
PT Report
Shishkat, February 29: Release of stored water from the dammed Hunza River continued for the third day. The total drop in water level has been estimated at around 20 feet. Out of the 20 feet the net drop in water level is 9-10 feet, while the rest relates to the water stored as a result of the spillway blockade.
The water drop has exposed parts of the village of Shishkat and Gulmit. The photographs below will explain the situation as of February 29, 2012.
Thanks for the pictorial update, if you could kindly give the details about the surfacing of the road, it will help the travelers. -Pamirtimes remains my first choice as i open the net.
Is there hope for more lowering of water level or not ?
Thanks to Pamir times for its continuous updates on the Attaabad Lake situation.
Dear PT Team,

Is it possible to increase the frequency of updates regarding flow of water and comments of local area. That will be really great for all of us.
Stay blessed.
