I don't believe the Bolan River has totally dried up. I spent part of my childhood in Mach, town, about 40 miles south of Quetta town. Mach is situated at the side of the Bolan river basin. While there is no permanent river or stream, you will often find streams sprouting out of the stony river basin and these streams disappear again within 50-100 metres from its source. Amazingly, these streams are teeming with small fish, a scaly fresh water fish and a catfish. I believe that if there are fish in streams that keep on oozing out of the stone gravel at different places over time, then there must be an underground water system that feeds these streams and there must be fish living underground as well. Otherwise how would you explain the existence of fish in an arid hot river basin where summer temperatures may soar to 50C in the shade?
