He acknowledged that paying electricity bills is extremely difficult for flood-hit communities and assured that rehabilitation would be ensured at the earliest.
He further added that fuel prices are declining and “imported inflation is not an issue.” He said damage assessments are underway and initial estimates will begin to emerge within 15 days.
“The scale of the ongoing flood relief operation is unprecedented. May the waters recede quickly so the next crops can be sown,” Muhammad Aurangzeb remarked, noting that roads, bridges, houses, and infrastructure have been devastated and must be rebuilt.
