💨 Abstract

The Lahore High Court has expressed concern over falling water levels, leading to drought-like conditions in Pakistan. Justice Shahid Karim emphasized the need for a state of emergency to address the water crisis, urging the prevention of water wastage. The Punjab government has established a committee to tackle the issue, but the court criticized excessive water use at car washes. The court ordered a crackdown, fines, and demanded a report on drought conditions.
