Addressing the flood victims at Dera Ismail Khan, Imran Khan said that it is a big responsibility to spend the donations transparently collected from the public. He said that PTI had decided to give money to the victims only for building houses.
“We have established a comprehensive verification system to distribute money to the flood victims. Under this system, the victims will give a check to the bank, and they will get the money because it is against my religion to humiliate the victims and give them money,” he said.
Former Prime Minister Imran Khan said that in Punjab and KP every family has been given a health facility of up to PKR10 lac, with the help of which they can go to any private hospital and get free treatment.
He also said that we are happy that we have done what even rich countries could not do in the country, in which the Pakistanis living abroad also helped us a lot.
A total of 157 persons were to be given cheques in the first phase of disbursement of compensation amount. The people whose houses were completely damaged would be given compensation amount of Rs 400,000 each while Rs 160,000 would be given to the owners of partially damaged houses.
In the ceremony 150 tents and 150 ration packages were also distributed among the flood affectees in a very undisciplined manner.
