The danger of the outburst of the artificial lake is increasing. Keeping in view the volume and speed of water it will create, a number of villages, situated downstream, will either be flooded or will experience landslides. According to a report by FOCUS, an affiliated organisation of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), the villages that run a high risk of flooding in case of the outburst of the lake include Ahmadabad, Faizabad, Ganish, Mayun, Joglot, Gowachi, Rahimabad, Rahimabad Pain, Nomal, Chilmisdas, Juta Pain, Jagoat, Majokal, Danyore and Oshkandas. The worst scenario could be the flood rushing downstream, submerging 15 bridges and 20 villages and finally hitting the Tarbela Dam.

This is Aisha. I want to know whether this Hunza Lake-glacier disaster could be turned into blessing. We are experiencing acute water and energy crises in our country. Can this water be used or channelised/stored and Dam be built to generate electricity. As our neighbours have built Dams and blocked our waters, this lake outburst, its dangers aside, may be a blessing to be benefitted from.

Dear Aisha, I wish this could be done but building a dam needs a lot of prior preparation, sorting out minute details. The present place where water has formed a lake has side walls which are not firm and cannot contain a large volume of water for a long time.
