A pitiful Episode

The recent episode of the devastation caused by the history’s most disparaging flood, has led to many sociological and economical issues. Not only that Pakistan has moved two or more decades back but, a lot of social, medical and emotional disparity has occurred.

Due to this catastrophe, many have lost their homes. It is indeed deplorable to see that women are in particular facing a lot of problems. Those who never paced out of their houses are now out on street, devoid of much to do as, even being able to cover their heads. They don’t have the facility of proper women sanitation.

The motive of writing this blog is to bring the women issues under the limelight. It is appalling to see that at an instance like this, when people have no shelter to cover their heads, no provision of a proper three times meal and they have been torn away from their families, lost property, suffering from emotional traumas, there are still some disgruntled elements, who instead of helping the ones facing the music or even fearing the Almighty, are making use of this occasion as a time to fulfill their illegal desires and carrying out the shameful deeds.

Sadly, it has been reported that in the areas of southern Punjab, the meals provided in the refugee camps aren’t safe for consumption. The flood victims are not only being traumatized by the loss of their properties only but the new uprising situation is that they are also on the verge of losing their respect, in the sense that some elements, are hosting the women and children trafficking business in those flood destructed areas.

The meals provided are mixed with tranquilizers. Hence, when families’ intake the food, they spontaneously become unconscious and these felons get the opportunity to kidnap the young girls and women. And later traffic them for the dirty businesses.

Hence, measures are now finally been taking my the rangers o test the food before its distribution, after several such cases took place, where after regaining consciousness, families realized the missing female members.

All in all, it is indeed the time for the people to realize that they should stand by the flood victims and shore up them instead of aggravating their wounds and causing additional traumas for them.
