Chandigarh, July 15(Press Ki Taquat)
The Punjab Government today said it will be left with no option but to allow excess waters of the Sutlej and Beas to flow into Pakistan through the Hussainiwala barrage if Haryana and Rajasthan do not absorb additional water into their canal system to help ease the flood situation in the state.
The Sutlej and Beas flow into Punjab from HP and converge in Kapurthala district. The Sutlej, thereafter enters Pakistan in Ferozepur through the Hussainiwala barrage that is controlled by the Punjab Government.
