Watch: Two sides of Wagah border – waterlogged Pak, clean India

After the video started making rounds on the internet, Pakistan pinned the blame on India for the waterlogging, saying that the elevation of the Grand Trunk Road on the Indian side has caused the flooding

The iconic Wagah border, from where Pakistan is within an eyeshot, witnessed two sides of the coin after floodwaters deluged the Pakistani side, while the Indian side looked clean.

A video of Pakistani rangers standing in knee-deep water in its side of the Wagah border has gone viral since.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Pakistan is grappling with severe flooding following days of relentless heavy rain. At the Wagah joint checkpost, the Pakistani side of the parade area, used for the daily flag-lowering ceremony, is submerged in muddy water, with sandbags stacked at several points in an effort to manage the flooding.

In stark contrast, the Indian side remains mostly dry, aside from a small patch of water near the international border gates.

Pakistan blames India

After the video started making rounds on the internet, Pakistan pinned the blame on India for the waterlogging, saying that the elevation of the Grand Trunk Road on the Indian side has caused the flooding.

However, India already has a rain water harvesting system in place and is equipped with proper drainage management to prevent waterlogging on its side.

According to a report by the Times of India, Pakistan has raised the issue of GT Road elevation to Indian officials.

Kartarpur corridor floods

Floodwaters from the Ravi River entered the complex of Gurudwara Darbar Sahib in the Kartarpur corridor of Narowal district of Pakistan. The revered site houses the holy scripture Guru Granth Sahib.

Delhi govt minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa has confirmed that the “saroop” of Sri Guru Granth Sahib is safe, adding that eight people have been rescued from the gurudwara and sent to Narowal.

The Pakistan military announced it had launched a “major rescue operation” to evacuate pilgrims, staff, and local residents. Boats were deployed, and hundreds of people were transported to safer areas.
