Sindh, especially the provincial capital, on behalf of the Pakistan Meteorological Department Sindh Government has imposed a ‘Rain Emergency’ from Thursday evening due to the fear of possible urban flooding in the city after the forecast of heavy rain with thunder and lightning in Karachi from the night of February 29 to the morning of March 2.
Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah issued a high alert to all government departments to be ready to deal with the emergency and also directed K Electric to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the water board’s pumping stations.
In the pictures and videos released to the media from the Chief Minister House, the staff were seen ready with drainage machines on different roads of Karachi city.
Karachi Police Chief Khadim Hussain Rand directed all SSPs to be on alert to deal with heavy rains.
Despite the forecast of heavy rain and possible urban flooding by the Meteorological Department, no heavy rain was reported anywhere in Karachi on Friday (March 1) and light rain was witnessed in different areas.
History of Urban Flooding in Karachi
During the last two decades, after the rain in Karachi, the news of various areas under water has been coming in the media. After the year 2000, almost every year after the rains, different areas of the city remain under water.
Karachi experienced severe urban flooding seven times from 2000 to 2023 i.e. in 2006, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2020 and 2022.
In 2020, when Defense Housing Authority (DHA), a very posh area of Karachi city, was flooded, national media attention was focused on DHA Karachi for several days following viral videos on social media.

The opponents of the Pakistan People’s Party, which has been in the government for the past three periods in Sindh, are seen raising questions on the performance of the Sindh government by sharing videos and photos of areas flooded by rainwater on social media.
Similarly, the supporters of Pakistan People’s Party are seen sharing videos and pictures of clean roads and debunking the accusations.
What is urban flooding?
When a city’s drainage system, including the system that drains rainwater out of the city, fails after a heavy rain and a large part of the city is submerged, it is called urban flooding or urban flooding.
In the last few years, urban flooding has been reported not only in Karachi but also in Lahore and other cities. After heavy rains in Balochistan’s coastal city of Gwadar last week, many areas came under water.
Despite the passage of five days in the recent spell of rains, rain water has not been drained from the city of Gwadar and citizens of Gwadar are seen in videos requesting for drainage on social media.
The situation in rain affected Gwadar is still bad.
According to Quetta-based journalist Azam Ulfat, Balochistan Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Director General Jahanzeb Khan admitted on Friday that the situation in Gwadar has not improved. According to him, 187 mm of rain fell in Gwadar and its surroundings in two days and the situation has worsened with 97 mm of rain today.

There are many injustices in this country that simply must be endured because otherwise not much can be done about them. The phenomenon of the so-called “non-makachenka” is truly problematic. These are people who, despite the demand for labor, simply do not want to work. The workers of the Employment Centers tear themselves apart to offer them possible jobs and throw them one by one in the garbage.
They want to grow into this
They simply survive on various allowances and allowances. In the Czech Republic this is actually possible and for a long time tens or hundreds of thousands of people no longer work in this way. But what happens when they reach retirement age and start receiving a pension?
People commonly believe that this is where another injustice occurs. And often the citizens in question also hope for it, thinking that the State will take care of them again, as they are used to. However, despite all expectations and ideas, the reality is not so simple.
The pension is the result of a sort of insurance, even if it is a somewhat imprecise term, since you do not save in your imaginary account, but throw money into a continuous system, where it is immediately consumed, while you have to hope that someone will contribute to you too when tea.
How do you want to count it?
But in short it is social insurance, and if you don’t take part in it, you may also find that you are not entitled to a pension. And no, the widespread rumors that an unemployed person would automatically be entitled to an a

One of the international efforts to find asteroids that could hit Earth was the 2016 discovery of the asteroid Kamoa’aleva. (Kamo’oalewa) is estimated to be 40-100 meters in diameter. And it rotates very fast to be considered an asteroid. Then, in 2021, another team of scientists found evidence that Kamoe Leva’s composition is similar to rocks found on Earth’s Moon.
Recently, a small team of international planetary scientists A report published in the journal Nature Astronomy reveals evidence to support the theory that the asteroid Kamoa’aleva was ejected from the Moon. The latter conducted a wide-ranging study of asteroids and possible locations on the Moon. Where the asteroid Kamoa’Aleva might have come from The team created a computer model to simulate the crash. This could result in a chunk of the lunar surface the size of asteroid Kamoo Aleva being ejected into space. Until the team was able to estimate the possible size of
QNAP and WD, productivity and backup for manufacturing
QNAP e Western Digitaltogether, to explain to partners and end customers in the manufacturing sector how to improve productivity and data security.
We talk about highly topical and central topics for companies’ business strategy: key topics for QNAP and WD, which has been profitably cooperating with the manufacturer of NAS and networking solutions for more than 13 years.
The event was organized in the new QNAP Italia headquarters near Milan and they attended Alvise Sinigaglia, Country Manager Italy, QNAP Italy, and Davide Vento, Senior Sales Manager, EU Sales Team, Western Digital. Renzo Zonin, journalist from Avalon Media, moderated the session.
The importance of data
For a company, data is fundamental, as is fundamental correct strategy for their archiving, so as to protect them from accidents and malicious attacks.
The most widespread and consolidated procedure for securing data is summarized in 3-2-1 backup definition. There are three backup copies, a number that statistically minimizes the risk of data loss. In fact, if the probability of failure of the support of copy n.1 and that of copy n.2 is 1/100, the probability of a simultaneous failure is 1/100 x 1/100 = 1/10,000. With three different backup copies, the probability drops to one in a million. Step “2” indicates the use of two different technologies, a useful practice to avoid the almost simultaneous malfunction of two identical disks, for example. “One” represents a backup copy to be kept in a different location, so as to protect the data from catastrophic events such as floods, fires, thefts, ransomware attacks. An increasingly frequent choice is uploading data to the cloud.

Get Two Anker 20-Watt USB-C Chargers for Just $13: A Prime-Exclusive Deal on Amazon
Phone companies’ decision not to ship USB-C chargers with their products is undoubtedly a positive step for the planet. However, it does mean that consumers may need to purchase their own chargers. The good news is that adding two 20-watt USB-C chargers to your collection of charging options is more affordable than you might think. Currently, Amazon is offering a pack that includes two Anker 20-watt USB-C chargers for just $13, and it even comes with two USB-C cables. However, there is a catch – you need to be an Amazon Prime member to get this special price. Still, even at the normal price of $19, it’s still a good deal.
Not only is the price impressive, but the functionality of these chargers is also noteworthy. Each charger has a 20-watt USB-C port, which is sufficient for fast-charging even the latest iPhones. Additionally, a legacy USB-A port is included for those who require it. The two USB-C cables provided are both 5 feet long and come in either black or white, featuring an understated finish.
A CNET colleague purchased these chargers and mentioned that they are well built, while the included cables are of good quality, although not particularly sturdy. It’s important to note that this deal is li
