The northern Punjab will see medium-sized rainfall during this wet spell, while other regions of the nation will see light rain, according to a PDMA official in this area.

The PDMA has recommended that farmers in the Potohar region take precautions to safeguard their wheat harvest.

Dust and hailstorms brought on by the westerly system could harm buildings and crops, according to PDMA.

According to PDMA, there is a chance of landslides in hilly areas.

PDMA stated that heatwaves are predicted in southern regions, especially in plain areas, and that temperatures may turn sour during May across the nation.

The administration has been advised to remain vigilant by DG PDMA during this time.

The majority of the country is expected to experience nearly normal rainfall from May to July, according to the Met Office’s seasonal outlook. However, the upper half of the nation, which includes the southern regions of Sindh and the northeastern catchments of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, may experience slightly above-average rainfall.

Details indicate that the father of a 13-year-old girl in Swat married a 70-year-old man. When the authorities learned of the situation, they moved quickly to arrest the little girl’s father and groom.

Also placed under arrest were the witnesses to the marriage and the nikahkhuwan. The young girl’s medical needs prompted a hospital visit in the meantime.

Under the Pakistani Constitution, the state is required to protect all people, especially women and children, and the practice of underage marriage is against these fundamental rights.

The Marriage Restriction Act of 1929, which is the current law of Pakistan, stipulates that a female must be 16 years old and a boy must be 18.

Legislators from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) have tried more than once to raise the legal age of marriage to 18, but their attempts have stalled out of concern about opposition from hardline parties.
