DADU (92 News) - Several more areas in Qambar, Shahdadkot and Dadu were inundated due to the ravaging flood in the Indus River.

Several feet water accumulated in Kachu and other areas due to the flood. The Pak Army and Navy teams have rescued over 400 people from the flood-hit areas. Hundreds of people are forced to stay under the open sky after their houses, crops and cattle drowned.

After drowning Mehar, the floodwater also inundated the Indus Highway, suspending traffic. People in Khairpur and Shikarpur are also narrating the story of destruction. A majority of localities and shopping centres have become ponds.

Meanwhile, the authorities have issued an alert due to a high flood at Chashma, Taunsa, Guddu and Sukkur Barrage.
