The distirct administrations of Thatta and Sujawal declared emergency on all protective embankments of Indus river in both the districts and advised the residents of Kutcha areas (river bed) to shift to safer places.
All protective bunds were being strengthened and were under strict vigilance round the clock while the irrigation, revenue and other staff had been directed to remain on duty round the clock.
However, the irrigation authorities have declared that there was no imminent danger to the bunds as vulnerable points at Soorjani and Monarki bunds in Sujawal district had been strengthened properly and heavy flow of water will safely pass towards the sea. All measures have been adopted to meet any eventuality.
