ISLAMABAD: President Dr Arif Alvi has appealed to entire nation, overseas Pakistanis and international community to lend support to flood affectees.  “Entire nation, overseas Pakistanis and international community should come forward to help flood victims.

Flood affectees are in dire need of rescue, relief and rehabilitation due to heavy rains and floods, he said this in a statement issued here. He said floods have devastated life and livelihood of people all over country.

Pakistani nation demonstrated unprecedented philanthropic spirit in past. Likewise nation should contribute tremendously to relief activities and make donations in shape of cash and kind.

All governments, institutions, NGOs and volunteers should help provide shelter, food and medical facilities to flood affectees, he urged.

Media should also persuade nation to donate cash and essential commodities for flood victims. Flood caused by historical rains inflicted damage on standing crops. Damage was caused to roads, bridges and infrastructure of communication system. He said international community should provide their expertise, technology and required machinery to government institutions.

Nation once again would come forward to help flood victims like past and would not rest till their complete rehabilitation, he hoped
