RAJANPUR - The temporary boat bridge at Nishtar Ghat, linking Kot Mithan with Chachran has been dismantled due to rise in the water level in River Indus here the other day. As per detail, during the winters when the water level in the River Indus decreases, Irrigation/Highway Departments establish a temporary boat bridge here since long. The bridge not only lessens some 150km distance between the District Rajanpur and Rahim Yar Khan but also provides passengers with excursion and adventure.    –Reporter

But sudden calamity of bridge-break has put them in a fix. Now they will have to adopt alternative routes to cross the Indus.–Reporter
