Wapda to Add 364 Mw to National Gird This Year
WAPDA TO ADD 364 MW TO NATIONAL GIRD THIS YEAR By Mansoor Ahmad Lahore : The Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) would add 364 MW of hydroelectricity this year in the power supply system of the national grid, the chairman of the authority told The News on Wednesday. “WAPDA is also working on projects that will generate 35,500 MW of hydroelectricity including 22,800 MW run of the river projects”, said. “We are committed to ensure that Pakistan takes full advantage of its hydroelectricity production potential”, he said. The first unit of 96 MW hydropower project at Jinnah Barrage has already been commissioned and it would start operating on full capacity by the end of this year, he said. Durrani said that the 130 MW Allai Khwar project at Battagram is almost complete and would start generating power within few months. “Duber Khwar – a 130 MW hydroelectric project at Kohistan, is scheduled to generate full power by December 2012”, he added. In addition Satpara Dam is generating 17.36 MW of hydroelectricity. The 72 MW Khan Khwar hydropower project in 2011 is already generating its installed capacity, Durrani said. “This is a humble contribution of WAPDA to reduce the gap between demand and supply of electricity”, he said. Work on high capacity hydroelectricity projects is in full swing. He said the feasibility study and detailed engineering and design of 7,100 MW Bunji project in Gilgit Baltistan has been completed and is currently under review of WAPDA experts. He said feasibility study of Dasu Dam in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has been completed. -

Water Resources Development in Pakistan a Revisit of Past Studies
World Water Day 22nd March, 2014 56 WATER RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT IN PAKISTAN A REVISIT OF PAST STUDIES By Engr. Abdul Khaliq Khan1 Abstract Three-fourths of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. Only 1% of the World’s water is usable, about 97% is salty sea water and 2% is frozen in glaciers and ice caps. All life on earth depends on water. Population is increasing and hence water availability per person is reducing. Civilizations have historically flourished around rivers and major waterways and for centuries these waterways have been a source of their livelihood. In modern times a remarkable irrigation network was developed by the British in the Indus river basin and at the time of partition the dividing line of the sub-continent disregarded not only the topography but also the irrigation boundaries of the then existing canal supply system. This created great challenges for the water resources development work in Pakistan. This paper discusses the importance of water and its role in the economic development of a country through increase in agricultural and industrial development. It traces the path as to how in Pakistan over the last 67 years various studies were carried out for the planning and development of water resources in the country. It discusses the steps that need to be taken today so that ample water is made available for our future generations for their survival. 1. INTRODUCTION All life on Earth depends on water, whether it is a plant in a desert, an animal in a wilderness, an insect in a rock crevice or a fish in a lake. -

The four names of great men from Sindh that he gave, included three former students of Sindh Madressah. Today, in 21st century, it gives pleasure that Sindh Madressah has kept alive that tradition of producing great men to serve the humanity. -
Ancient Universities in India
Ancient Universities in India Ancient alanda University Nalanda is an ancient center of higher learning in Bihar, India from 427 to 1197. Nalanda was established in the 5th century AD in Bihar, India. Founded in 427 in northeastern India, not far from what is today the southern border of Nepal, it survived until 1197. It was devoted to Buddhist studies, but it also trained students in fine arts, medicine, mathematics, astronomy, politics and the art of war. The center had eight separate compounds, 10 temples, meditation halls, classrooms, lakes and parks. It had a nine-story library where monks meticulously copied books and documents so that individual scholars could have their own collections. It had dormitories for students, perhaps a first for an educational institution, housing 10,000 students in the university’s heyday and providing accommodations for 2,000 professors. Nalanda University attracted pupils and scholars from Korea, Japan, China, Tibet, Indonesia, Persia and Turkey. A half hour bus ride from Rajgir is Nalanda, the site of the world's first University. Although the site was a pilgrimage destination from the 1st Century A.D., it has a link with the Buddha as he often came here and two of his chief disciples, Sariputra and Moggallana, came from this area. The large stupa is known as Sariputra's Stupa, marking the spot not only where his relics are entombed, but where he was supposedly born. The site has a number of small monasteries where the monks lived and studied and many of them were rebuilt over the centuries. We were told that one of the cells belonged to Naropa, who was instrumental in bringing Buddism to Tibet, along with such Nalanda luminaries as Shantirakshita and Padmasambhava. -

10-35 Waterworldwaterday 22 March 2014Water and Anex Izharul
World Water Day 22nd March, 2014 10 WATER ENERGY NEXUS By Dr. Izhar ul Haq1 SYNOPSIS Pakistan has on the average about 145 MAF of surface flows per annum. Out of this on average 103 MAF is diverted for irrigation at various barrages, 10 MAF is the system loss and 32 MAF goes down the last barrage into sea every year. Mangla and Tarbela two mega Dams were built as a part of the replacement works of the Indus Basin Plan. Their storage capacity has reduced due to sedimentation. There are about 100 small to medium dams on tributaries but their storage capacity is small. Pakistan has presently storage capacity of 10% of annual flows against 40% World average. Construction of Kalabagh Dam is stalled due to non consensus of the provinces. Diamer Basha Dam, having the approval of Council of Common Interest and Political Consensus, is ready for construction since 2008 and is still awaiting the financing arrangement for construction. These are only a couple of mega storage sites on main river Indus. Pakistan must build storage dams not only for food self sufficiency but also for cheap hydropower and flood mitigation. Pakistan has hydropower potential of 60,000 MW out of which it has exploited only 11%. The share of hydropower has reduced from 60% to 32% of the total power generated. The dependence on the imported fossil fuel (oil) has pushed the power tariff upwards. Pakistan has 18 small to medium hydel stations and only 3 stations greater than 1000 MW. The hydel power produced by Mangla and Tarbela has been the main stay in the economy of Pakistan.
