People of all the four provinces of Pakistan are facing the deadliest floods of Pakistan's history which have left the country in tatters. It’s a calamity & disaster in the major part of the country. About one-fifth of the country — a chunk of land about the size of Italy — has been affected. More than 20 Million people have become homeless and are starving in different parts becoming islands. The effected population of the catastrophe is much larger than those who required humanitarian assistance after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake combined.. The impact of the devastating floods is comparable to the partition in 1947 when 10 Million people crossed the newly created borders.The destruction of infrastructure & crops is estimated over $15bn .
Its is the time when each & every person of conscious around the world should rise up and play its role to help the victims of the catastrophe. . The humanitarian services always need the help & sponsorship from the people who can contribute a bit out of their fortunes.
