Flood Warning System fails
The Flood Warning System installed at Rawal Town Municipal Administration (RTMA) offices three months ago by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) went out of order during heavy rain on Friday. According to the sources, the equipment was provided by the JICA to record water flow at Leh Nullah and set off alarm if the water level reached dangerous level, but on Friday, the system failed to record flow of water due to software problem. When contacted, District Emergency Officer Dr Tanveer said the system was fully functional at RTMA offices.
