Do you know Pakistani has the largest...
Pakistan is the country having the
largest earth filled dam in the world. Yes! that is Tarbela Dam, which is also
2nd largest dam by its structural volume. This dam is indicator of good engineering.
It is located in Haripur District, Hazara Division, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, about 50 kilometres
(31 mi) northwest of Islamabad. In addition to fulfilling primary purpose of
the Dam i.e. supplying water for Irrigation, Tarbela Power Station has
generated 341.139 Billion KWh of cheap hydro-electric energy since
commissioning. A record annual generation of 16.463 Billion KWh was recorded
during 1998-99. Annual generation during 2007-08 was 14.959 Billion KWh while
the Station shared peak load of 3702 MW during the year which was 23.057% of total
WAPDA System Peak. The dam was completed in 1974 and was
designed to store water from the Indus River for irrigation, flood control, and the generation of hydroelectric
power. It's a big honour for Pakistani nation having such a great structure which is unique in the whole world.
The only way through which Pakistan's Image can be better.
Today Pakistan is facing many challenges inside and outside the border. These challenges have also damaged the identity and image of Pakistan. The question is that is there no any good thing in Pakistan which can make our image better? The answer is Yes. There are a lot of thing which Pakistanis can proudly say that we did it! Media is the source which can make a country's image bad or better. Unfortunately our media never shown good things but instead always shown spicy news only to get better rating due to which Pakistan's image looks bad. The way is that firstly we should know what are good things in Pakistan and then we can spread those things and tell the world that this is the real image of Pakistan, not the image which media and international media depicts.
