Flood Situation

Recent flood has institutionalized catastrophic situation in Punjab province where the death
toll has reached to
More than

257

while the number of critically injured people has surpassed 700.

two million people

have been affected while the total loss including

standing crops, livestock and other valuables is unpredictable. Govt. has announced
emergency situation in the province but still the situation is worsening with every transitory
moment as flood is reaching towards South Punjab after hitting a huge area of

North

Punjab and many districts of AJK & GB. Pakistan army has done a great job
in the rescue operation for flood affected areas but still a lot more is to be done as quickly as
possible.
Incessant rains, accumulation of rainwater and destruction of infrastructure are factors
contributing to heavy losses of property, domestic animals and crops. Land sliding has
damaged roads and power lines, leaving many people without electricity and drinking water.
Flood waters submerged homes after the Chenab River rose dramatically over the weekend,
causing what has been described as a "Super-flood". Sialkot and Gujranwala regions have
been affected severely due to exceptionally heavy rains. With road and communication links
broken, getting to those, stranded in remote areas, is proving to be a firm challenge.
