The much awaited monsoon came but it was not alone. The rains were accompanied by floods as the rivers bloated and reservoirs overflowed inundating towns entirely and rendering people dead, injured, lost and homeless. To add insult to injuries, the state agencies seem clueless. In a state with as little resources as Pakistan has, in the aftermath of such natural disasters, the people throughout the length and breadth of Pakistan should spur into action, mobilize their resources and extend helping hand to our fellow citizens in distress rather jeopardy. The job of saving Pakistanis and later rehabilitating them should not be left to the government alone. All of us who can should come forward and help.
It is a call for Pakistan
