Infrastructure Guideline for Monsoon 2025
The Infrastructure Guideline for Monsoon 2025, developed by the IA&PD Wing of NDMA, provides technical direction for national, provincial and district-level preparedness against anticipated monsoon-related hazards. With increasing climate variability and ageing infrastructure heightening flood risks, the guideline emphasizes the need for pre-emptive planning and risk-informed interventions. It includes rainfall projections, identifies high-risk districts and outlines sector-specific structural and non-structural mitigation strategies. Additionally, it offers post-monsoon reconstruction frameworks to guide recovery efforts. The aim is to help stakeholders make informed decisions that protect infrastructure, reduce vulnerabilities and safeguard communities across Pakistan.

Infrastructure Advisory for Hydraulic Structures - Monsoon 2025
In light of the impending monsoon season, the Infrastructure Advisory & Project Development (IA&PD) Wing of the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) issued this strategic advisory focused specifically on hydraulic infrastructure across Pakistan. The anticipated intensity of rainfall and associated flood risks demand urgent attention towards the performance and structural integrity of dams, barrages, spillways, canal systems, levees, weirs, and urban stormwater channels.In light of the ageing nature of critical hydraulic infrastructure, compounded by siltation, deferred maintenance, poor regulation of water flows and encroachments along floodplains and nullahs, there is a significant threat of systemic failures and overtopping events that may severely impact downstream communities, agricultural zones, and lifeline infrastructure. This specific advisory urges stakeholder to implement pre-emptive structural and non-structural measures to ensure flood resilience and risk mitigation of hydraulic assets.
