Floods: Flood and Damaged.the Standing Crops

Floods come every year and more or loss welcomed since flood waters leave the soil silt-enriched.But when they start playing havoc with human life and property they become a horrible catastrophe.Than they bring disaster and destruction and leave behind hunger disease and death.Crops are destroyed.Green fields turn into vast lakes.Mud-houses collapse.Both men and animals are drowned.Roads,bridges and highways are swept away.All means of communication and transportation are upset and shattered.Life comes to a standstill.Moans and groans turn glee into gloom.
Even after flood water recede the sufferings of the people are not over.The reconstruction of the houses,roads and bridges and the rehabilitation of the displaced persons create complex problems.The danger of epidemics and other water-borne diseases is also imminent.People have to start their life anew as all their means of livelihood are destroyed.This year floods have caused massive devastation in Pakistan.Punjab,Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas have suffered extensive damages.Here thousands of villages have been either completely swept away or very badly damaged.The standing crops of rice,sugar cane,fodder and cotton have also been washed out by the raging waters.Millions of people have been displaced.The government and the people should join hands to provide relief to the flood victims .Clothes, eatables,medicines and clean water are their immediate needs.People should donate funds generously.
Government should take foolproof steps to to ensure that the relief material and funds reach they needy and deserving people,and are not misappropriated by the dishonest government officials.
