Leaking Bad Waters!




FLOODS.

One word, yet more than a 1000 dead. And the counting goes on! The worst floods in the history of Pakistan! Destruction. Devastation. My people are "calamity hit" yet my President goes to UK for the inauguration of his son's chairmanship of the party. Donations are coming in. But really, should they?? When we are ourselves not sincere with our people, who will give a damn about them!

More from Dawn.com: A westerly weather system moving in from Iran and Afghanistan, combined with heavy monsoon rain, caused the worst floods on record in Pakistan in the past week, with the northwestern province of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa the worst hit.

Provincial Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain told Pakistani media more than 1,000 people had been killed and the toll could be even higher.

“The level of devastation is so widespread, so large, it is quite possible that in many areas there are damages, there are deaths which may not have been reported,” army spokesman Major-General Athar Abbas told reporters.
