PUNJAB’S POTENTIAL DISASTER PROFILE
The province of Punjab is vulnerable to most kinds of disasters, with particularly river flood and hill torrents frequently occurring since 2010. Punjab faces floods in varying intensity almost every year. There have also been examples of tornadoes and earthquakes in the province but their frequency have been quite low, with most of the Punjab being relatively safe with regards to vulnerability to earthquakes. Some areas such as Murree and parts of the Rawalpindi Division are located on the fault line hence vulnerable to earthquakes. Apart from above mentioned areas an old fault line is activated near Nankna Sahib. Tornadoes too have been a rare happening in Punjab but nevertheless a force of nature to reckon with.
Punjab’s geographic location and climatic conditions make it more vulnerable to monsoon floods and droughts in the southern areas. The effects of climate change and associated variability in the monsoons means that the occurrence and intensity of floods have significantly been increased in the last few years. Punjab has witnessed floods of various intensities in the last seven years due to climatic changes. The worrisome facts are that different rivers have caused flooding in different areas of the province including riverine, urban and flash floods (hill torrents) during last seven years.
