Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda) has always respected Irsa's indents in letter and in spirit irrespective of power requirements.
"In the same spirit, Irsa's directives about water releases are being thoroughly complied with in the present situation of water crisis as well," says a press release issued by Wapda here on Saturday.
As per daily hydrological data of the recent past days, Irsa specified daily water indents from Tarbela and Mangla reservoirs and no instructions were issued to operate these reservoirs on run-of-the-river basis, the release adds.
