Sutlej in flood at two places
Vast swathes of countryside along the banks of Sutlej River were inundated after India opened the spillway relasing large amounts of water, causing low to medium flood in the river between Ganda Singhwala and Suleimanki. A peak of 65,000 cusecs was passing through Ganda Singhwala and 68,000 cusecs through Suleimanki, Flood Forecasting Division chief Hazrat Mir told Dawn on Sunday evening. He said the river was in low flood at both the places but several villages in Kasur, Okara and Pakpattan districts had been flooded.
