Save the life of Azar: Flood victims of Sindh left helpless in Hyderabad

Hyderabad Azar, flood victims, #FloodsinPakistan

A one-month-old ailing Azar is battling for life in a camp of flood victims of Sindh who have arrived in Hyderabad from Naushahro Feroze, ARY News reported on Saturday.

The country was hit by disastrous rains and floods, causing huge financial and life losses in the affected areas. Several terrifying videos have surfaced on social media platforms that showed the disasters in the flood-hit areas.

A one-month-old boy namely Azar is waiting for immediate assistance in a camp of flood victims in the second largest city of Sindh, Hyderabad. More than 200 flood victims are currently taking shelter at a school building in Old Wahdat Colony of the Qasimabad area and waiting for government assistance.

The family of the infant, Azar, was not having the medicines or milk for the child and his mother was extremely worried about his deteriorated health condition. The school administration left the flood victims helpless after locking the doors of the rooms.

Sindh minister Nasir Hussain Shah told ARY News that he has ordered the deputy commissioner to provide medicines and essential items to the infant.

He said that Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah disbursed relief funds to the accounts of all deputy commissioners and it was the government’s responsibility to provide food and other essential commodities to the flood victims.

The minister said that the government is closely monitoring the flood situation and maximum assistance will be provided to the affected people.

Several residential societies are submerged into flood water but the administration has vanished from the public appearance instead of starting dewatering operations in the flooded areas.

After watching aerial footage, it emerged that the citizens of Hyderabad were restricted inside their homes due to flooded roads and streets, whereas, the residents of the flooded areas were facing shortage of food as well.

Pakistan floods: South Asia’s monsoon explained

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year.

The monsoon is vital for agriculture and therefore for the livelihoods of millions of farmers and for food security in the poor region of around two billion people. But it brings destruction every ye...

CDA removes golden hands sculpture in Islamabad after online backlash

ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) on Monday removed a recently installed ‘Golden Hands’ sculpture located along Margalla Avenue in Islamabad. The artwork featured two large golden hands holding two balls like objects resembling a world map.
