Water in Mangla Dam at dangerous level
MIRPUR: Scores of houses were flooded after water levels in the Mangla Dam lake rose to dangerous levels on Thursday. The water level in Mangla dam is rising as a result of floods in the rivers that fall into the reservoir due to continued torrential rains in catchment areas. Boher Colony, Kunjri Colony, Khoo Colony and the Kharak village near Mirpur city have been affected by the water from the lake. The district administration has warned the residents of these areas to shift to safer places. The water level in the dam reached the highest level of 1,202 feet. app
