Introduction
• Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially
useful.
• Uses of water include agricultural, industrial, household, recreational
and environmental activities.
• The majority of human uses require fresh water.
• 97% of the water on earth is salt water. However, only
• 3% is fresh water.
• Fresh water is renewable resource.
Water in Balochistan
• Water could be found upon digging a mere 20 feet to 25 feet into the
ground.
• Of all the provinces, Balochistan is the worst hit.
• According to reports, 62% of Balochistan is deprived of safe drinking water.
• More than 58% of it’s land is uncultivable due to water scarcity.
• Total available water in Balochistan is 19.29 Billion m³.
• Water availability per ha is 556 m³/ha/annum.
• Storage availability per ha is 7 m³/ha
Source: IPD (2006a); GOP (2005a); GOP (2005b); World Bank (2005).
Water Problem in Balochistan
• In Balochistan, annual precipitation ranges from 50 to 500mm.
• Women have to walk miles each day for water needs.
• The water is obtained from ponds.
• Sometimes becomes extremely brackish, causing many water-borne
diseases.
• The government installed a large number of tube wells.
• But did not build any dams nor take action against illegal drilling.
• Currently, over 6,000 tube wells are lifting water from districts across
the province.
Causes
• Low rainfall
• Large number of tube wells
• Lack of dams
• No action on illegal drilling
• Over-population
• Increase water demand
• Poor water management
• Over exploitation of groundwater

  • 3. Introduction • Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially useful. • Uses of water include agricultural, industrial, household, recreational and environmental activities. • The majority of human uses require fresh water. • 97% of the water on earth is salt water. However, only • 3% is fresh water. • Fresh water is renewable resource.
  • 4. Water in Balochistan • Water could be found upon digging a mere 20 feet to 25 feet into the ground. • Of all the provinces, Balochistan is the worst hit. • According to reports, 62% of Balochistan is deprived of safe drinking water. • More than 58% of it’s land is uncultivable due to water scarcity. • Total available water in Balochistan is 19.29 Billion m³. • Water availability per ha is 556 m³/ha/annum. • Storage availability per ha is 7 m³/ha Source: IPD (2006a); GOP (2005a); GOP (2005b); World Bank (2005).
  • 5. Water Problem in Balochistan • In Balochistan, annual precipitation ranges from 50 to 500mm. • Women have to walk miles each day for water needs. • The water is obtained from ponds. • Sometimes becomes extremely brackish, causing many water-borne diseases. • The government installed a large number of tube wells. • But did not build any dams nor take action against illegal drilling. • Currently, over 6,000 tube wells are lifting water from districts across the province.
  • 6. Causes • Low rainfall • Large number of tube wells • Lack of dams • No action on illegal drilling • Over-population • Increase water demand • Poor water management • Over exploitation of groundwater
