Manchar Lake By Aziz Sanghur
Lake Manchar is the largest freshwater lake in Pakistan and one of Asia's largest. It is located west of the Indus River, in Jamshoro and Dadu District, Sindh. The area of the lake fluctuates with the seasons from as little as 350 km² to as much as 520 km². The lake collects water from numerous small streams in the Kirthar Mountains and empties into the Indus River. The lake was created in the 1930s when the Sukkur Barrage was constructed on the river Indus. The lake is fed by two canals, the Aral and the Danister from the river Indus. Until recently the lake supported thousands of fisherfolk, near village Kot Lashari Bobak railway station, who depended on the freshwater fish they caught in the lake. However, the lake is now undergoing environmental degradation resulting in the water becoming saline and killing off the fish and forcing the fisherfolk to look elsewhere for employment. The degradation has been occurring for a long time but only recently have the effects been felt. The diversion of water from the Indus and a diminished storm runoff from the Kirthar mountains have contributed to the reduction in fresh water supplies. At the same time, saline drainage water from agricultural fields in surrounding areas has started to flow into Lake Manchar. However between 16 August and 23. The lake was a stop-off on the Indus flyway for Siberian migratory birds, but recently the numbers have fallen from 25,000 birds counted in 1988 to just 2,800 bird counted in 2002, because the lake no longer provides the birds' main food, the lake fish. In the place of the birds, the lake now hosts a saline water reed. The lake also provided large volumes of water for irrigation but this has also been reduced and has resulted in a great reduction in the area irrigated by the lake. Manchar Lake one of the largest lake of Asia is polluted due to salinity and water logging, which is a threat to the livelihood of about 25, 000 population, who depends on are fishing. The marine life is badly destroyed. The catch is decreasing day by day. The affected fishermen community forced to migrate from the Lake, leaving their ancestral profession, fishing. Manchar Lake is located in Jamshoro and Dadu Districts, about I8 kms from Sehwan Sharif. It is a vast natural depression flanked by the Khirthar hills in the west, the Laki hills in the south and the river Indus in the east. Manchar Lake has been supporting various economic activities. It provided livelihood for a large number of fishermen, irrigation water for various crops and aquatic plants. The lake could also have supported the tourism industry if its beauty had been maintained. The lake is spread over 64,800 acres, having 25, 000 populations that live on their boats. It is unique in the world where fishermen community lives in the lake. Their children are unfamiliar about the land traditions. They have their own traditions to celebrate. They also arrange their marriage ceremony in the boats. They serve their guest in the lake over the boats, and decorate their boats during the marriage ceremony. A twelve-member family including children and wives live only on 19 feet squares long and 14 feet squares wide boats. The fisherwomen produce their children on the boats. During the birthing the untrained midwives perform their services, which is risky for the women. It is reported that several women were died during the childbirth. Prevalence of tuberculoses TB, anemia, malnutrition, skin disease, gastroenteritis and water bone disease is widely reported. More than 80% of the women and children are sick.

Manchchar The Dying Lake part 01 By Aziz Sanghur.flv
Manchar Lake polluted, needs attention
By Aziz Sanghur
KARACHI- Manchar Lake one of the largest lake of Asia is polluted due to salinity and water logging, which is a threat to the livelihood of about 25, 000 population, who depends on are fishing.
The marine life is badly destroyed. The catch is decreasing day by day. The affected fishermen community forced to migrate from the Lake, leaving their ancestral profession, fishing.
The Right Bank Outfall Drainage (RBOD) is dropping the salinity and water logging to the Manchar Lake. The sweet water is turning into brackish and fishes are dying to salted water.
The Main Nara Valley Drain (MVND), constructed at the time of the Sukkur Barrage now brings a considerable supply of saline water into the lake and has had a detrimental effected on Manchar Lake. In the future, the lake is likely to receive more drainage effluents by construction of a drainage network under the Right Bank Outfall Drainage (RBOD) schemes.
Manchar Lake is located in Jamshoro and Dadu Districts, about I8 kms from Sehwan Sharif. It is a vast natural depression flanked by the Khirthar hills in the west, the Laki hills in the south and the river Indus in the east.
Manchar Lake has been supporting various economic activities. It provided livelihood for a large number of fishermen, irrigation water for various crops and aquatic plants. The lake could also have supported the tourism industry if its beauty had been maintained.
The lake is spread over 64,800 acres, having 25, 000 populations that live on their boats. It is unique in the world where fishermen community lives in the lake.
Their children are unfamiliar about the land traditions. They have their own traditions to celebrate. They also arrange their marriage ceremony in the boats. They serve their guest in the lake over the boats, and decorate their boats during the marriage ceremony.
A twelve-member family including children and wives live only on 19 feet squares long and 14 feet squares wide boats.
The fisherwomen produce their children on the boats. During the birthing the untrained midwives perform their services, which is risky for the women. It is reported that several women were died during the childbirth.
Prevalence of tuberculoses TB, anemia, malnutrition, skin disease, gastroenteritis and water bome disease is widely reported. More than 80% of the women and children are sick.
A local fisherman, Haji Qadir Bux Mallah said that health facilities are available in Shah Hassan and Bubak town. In Shah Hassan there is a government dispensary, which offers almost no health facility, he added.
He said that in Bubak a Basic Health Unit exits, with two medical officers and no lady doctor. Fisher communities several deaths have occurred but health authorities have never taken any notice or bothered to intervene, he alleged.
Talking to this scribe, a head of the family, Pir Muhammad alias Piral, 50, said that their family could not live on the land because they would die like fish. When I was familiarized about the world. It was fish and birds. I did not know about the land remarked Piral.
He said that I suggested their children they would not change their forefather's profession. The Manchar Lake is our mother, which is feeding us. It is our duty to love with it. Please write about my mother that is dying feared Piral, while talking with this scribe.
The fishermen complained against the contractors, which bounded them to sell their catch on half rate against the market rate. The contractor system was introduced some years ago.
The fishermen loan the money from the contractor for building the boats and nets. The contractors also take their interests. The bounded fishermen have no right to protest against the contractors.
There is no law to protect the bounded fishermen from the contractors. The concerned officials are aware about the contractor system. But they did not pay any attention in this regard.
The fishermen communities are caught in the debt trap of these middlemen, who force them to sell the catch at rates as low as one third of the market rates.
Many fishermen are in virtual slavery of the middlemen who are the only source of loans at the time of need. Fishermen are also facing another threat from the contractor system.
Under this system they are supposed to surrender 25% of their catch to the contractor for continuing their ancestral fishing rights in the lake. Implementation of this contractor system has been temporarily reversed after a strong reaction by these fisher communities. If re-implemented, the decision would destroy the poor communities.
