00:00Sardar sir, we are thankful that you are with us and you have been very patient.
00:06I thought I was disconnected.
00:11Sardar sir, how can you let yourself get disconnected in this weather?
00:15It is a matter of our survival that you are connected with us.
00:18Tell me, can the weather or the rains be of this nature in Karachi?
00:26Can there be more of such a spell here?
00:29There is a possibility that there will be such a spell in the evening and at night.
00:34Because the low pressure area that was moving till now,
00:39there have been very strong rains in the central and upper Sindh for the past two days.
00:43And at night, of course, it was Karachi's turn and it was very strong in Karachi as well.
00:48And it was continuous?
00:50Yes, it was continuous.
00:52It was continuous till the early morning.
00:55And in the day, there is also some light to moderate, but in the evening and at night,
01:01there can be a fast spell of this kind.
01:03So tell us, there is also news that another system is coming from 13th August.
01:08So will our day of freedom also pass in the rain?
01:11Yes, absolutely.
01:13One more is coming.
01:15It is still going on.
01:18After this, the same Indian area, Rajasthan, East Rajasthan,
01:23it is still there, Central India or East Rajasthan.
01:26So, obviously, its direction is mostly shown here, towards the southern part of the country.
01:31So the possibility is that on 12th, 13th, 14th August,
01:34there will be a spell like this again.
01:36Now how severe it is, we will know when it comes close.
01:39It will be a good idea on 11th August.
01:42But there is a possibility.
01:44What is the situation all over the country?
01:46What is the situation now?
01:48What will be the situation in the future?
01:50Because we are seeing in KP and other places,
01:52that there is a lot of rain in KP and Balochistan.
01:54Yes, yes, absolutely.
01:56It is raining all over the country.
01:58Just say that West Balochistan, Chagi district,
02:02and below Gwadar-Chawadar,
02:04Kej district,
02:06Gwadar area of Makran,
02:08apart from that, it is raining heavily everywhere.
02:10Okay.
02:12And similarly, in most areas of Punjab,
02:14in Narab, etc.,
02:16and in Gujarat, etc.,
02:18it has rained more than 80-100 mm.
02:20So, it is happening in most places.
02:22This spell is definitely there till tomorrow.
02:24It is there till 6th August.
02:26Now see, in that,
02:28one day, two days,
02:30in some places, two days,
02:32in some places, with a gap of one day.
02:34Then, from 8th or 9th August,
02:36from 9th or 10th August,
02:38there is a possibility of another spell.
02:41Shalini, thank you so much
02:43Sardar Saif Sahib
02:45and he waited with us for a long time.
02:47We are thankful to him.
02:49We are thankful to him.
02:51And regarding the weather,
02:53we have all the updates in front of you.
02:55Now, let us tell you about the situation
02:57in other areas of Sindh.
02:59So, in the morning, in Sindh,
03:01the monsoon system is raining clouds all over Sindh.
03:03Now, Nawab Shah Sehwan and Dadu Samet,
03:05in different cities,
03:07from heavy rains,
03:09if we talk about the infrastructure,
03:11it is very weak.
03:13Because of this, we see that
03:15there is a lot of loss here.
03:17Now, the situation in Sindh is getting affected.
03:19On the other hand, the electricity is also not working.
03:21So, what is the condition of Matiyari?
03:23Our representatives from there
03:25are present with us.
03:27Ali Channa, Imtiaz Ali Channa
03:29will tell us more.
03:31Yes, absolutely.
03:33In Matiyari district,
03:35after the continuous rain,
03:38there has been a stop in the rain.
03:40In different areas of Matiyari,
03:42there was a light and fast rain.
03:44Because of which,
03:46water had accumulated in different areas.
03:48Right now, I am at the headquarters of Matiyari district.
03:50I am present on the main road.
03:52Here, you can see that water has accumulated
03:54from both sides.
03:56But from the side of the town administration,
03:58there is a lack of water.
04:00But in the villages of Matiyari,
04:02water has accumulated in the drunken areas.
04:04But from the side of the district administration,
04:06no action has been taken to remove water from the drunken areas.
04:08On the other hand,
04:10from the side of the district administration,
04:12more than 20 hours of load shedding has been done.
04:14But till now,
04:16there is no electricity in these areas.
04:18There is a shortage of electricity.
04:20Due to which, the residents of this area
04:22seem to be very worried.
04:24Alright, this is the situation of Matiyari.
04:26If we talk about Sanghar,
04:28there are also problems of the same nature.
04:30It is raining heavily.
04:32Then there are cracks in different canals.
04:34In Rohri canal,
04:36there are cracks of more than 40 feet.
04:38On the other hand,
04:40on the day before yesterday,
04:42we were told that
04:4424 hours have passed.
04:46So, instead of saving water,
04:48or managing it,
04:50it is a waste.
04:52On this, Muhammad Ilyas Anjum
04:54is telling us more.
04:56Yes,
04:58due to the continuous rain in Sanghar,
05:00the cracks in Rohri canal
05:03have caused destruction.
05:05Right now,
05:07the cracks in Rohri canal
05:09have been there for 24 hours.
05:11It has caused destruction in the area.
05:13Despite all efforts,
05:15the cracks in Rohri canal
05:17could not be stopped.
05:19Thousands of acres of crops
05:21have come under water.
05:23More than 10 villages
05:25have been emptied after water entered them.
05:27People are being rescued from there
05:29and sheltered in schools.
05:31All materials have been brought
05:33but we are waiting
05:35that as soon as the water level
05:37in Rohri canal decreases,
05:39the cracks will be stopped.
05:41The deputy commissioner
05:43told us that yesterday,
05:45the water was stopped from
05:47Sakhar Bairaj,
05:49but the cracks could not be stopped.
05:51Yes.
05:53So, this is the situation.
05:55Let us tell you about the situation
05:57of Kambar Shahidat Kot.
05:59The water has entered the houses
06:01due to the rain.
06:03The roads are flooded
06:05due to the rain.
06:07But right now,
06:09the scene is like a lake.
06:11The administration
06:13has not been able to do anything.
06:15Yusuf Kambo,
06:17our representative,
06:19is telling us more.
06:21Yes.
06:23The rain has continued
06:25in Shahidat Kot
06:27for a long time.
06:29After the heavy rain,
06:31the residential areas
06:33of the city and Girdanwaha
06:35have been flooded.
06:37The weather has improved
06:39due to the rain,
06:41but the heavy rain
06:43has made the roads
06:45of the city like a lake.
06:47The roads and streets
06:49of the city are like a lake.
06:51Despite the train emergency alert,
06:53the district administration
06:55has not done anything
06:57to help the people of the city.
06:59Due to this, the people of the city
07:01are facing a lot of problems.
