Karachi: Sindh Chief Minister (CM) Syed Murad Ali Shah on Monday (December 5) informed that the houses damaged in the recent flood will be rebuilt under the supervision of Non-government Organisations (NGOs), news sources reported.
The minister said that the presence of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in flood relief and reconstruction efforts will ensure transparency in fund allocation and distribution. He stated that the administration has opted to work with the same NGO that surveyed the flood-affected districts earlier. The government had originally allotted PKR 50 billion in this regard, out of a total needed budget of PKR 350 billion.
As per the details shared by CM Murad, each flood-affected home would get PKR 300,000 in instalments, subject to NGO verification. Furthermore, the NGO will be in charge of verifying records and household information. According to CM Murad, the survey discovered a total of 2 million houses damaged by the recent floods. He claimed that the government has reassigned PKR 87 billion in rehabilitation funds that were previously allotted for the annual development program.
