CJP proposes constitution of 'council' on Diamer-Bhasha Dam

Chief Justice of Pakistan Mian Saqib Nisar has said the construction of water reservoirs is a collective responsibility of the nation.

Talking to the participants during first session of the second day of International Symposium on Creating a Water Secure Pakistan in Islamabad on Saturday, he said all stakeholders should move forward to achieve this goal.

He said there should be a council regarding Diamar Bhasha Dam. He said WAPDA is an important institution regarding water storage but this responsibility should not be laid merely on it.

At the end of the first session shields were distributed among the speakers.
