Pakistani authorities reported that several villages along the banks of the river were covered by water, forcing dozens of families to evacuate to safer areas.
Locals are concerned that the situation could get much worse if the India-led conduct continues. Many expressed fears that domestic infrastructure, which is already weakened by previous floods, may not face another wave of water.

Local officials in the Pakistani Kashmir region have called for high alert and have begun to distribute emergency aid to affected communities.
“We have set up evacuation centres and rescue teams are located at the most endangered points,” said a spokesman for local authorities.
On the other hand, Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs asked for explanations from India, stressing the importance of timely communication to clear the waters, according to international agreements on cross-border water management.
According to analysts, tensions over water resources between the two countries have been present for decades, and such incidents could further increase political tensions.
Meanwhile, meteorologists warn that heavy rainfall is expected to continue in the coming days, which could add to the situation on the ground. The Pakistani government has called on citizens living near rivers to stay vigilant and follow civil protection guidelines.
