Federal Minister, Ahsan Iqbal has said that the current floods have pushed Pakistan 30 years back.

The floods have washed away three decades of hard work. Roads, routes, bridges, and villages have been destroyed by the floods.

The federal minister said that the damages suffered by victims are being assessed, and food along with fodder for livestock is being provided.

He also showed support for the flood-affectees.

While Sindh braces for flood, President Asif Ali Zardari has directed provincial, district and municipal authorities in Sindh to remain alert and ensure preparedness in view of heavy rains.

“He has urged citizens to take precautions and strictly follow official advisories”, the tweet said.

Punjab has been placed on a high flood alert after India shared fresh data on the flood situation, prompting authorities to seek military assistance in Jalalpur Pirwala where conditions have deteriorated.

The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Punjab confirmed that the army was called in as floodwaters worsened the crisis.

According to PDMA Punjab, the Indian High Commission informed Pakistan that water levels in the Sutlej River will continue to rise.
