Pakistan has been badly affected by the impacts of climate change and there is a dire need to devise new policies

Ahmed Kamal (Chairman, Federal Flood Commission): The flood situation across the country has become normal and there are no reports of flooding anywhere. We are now in the rehabilitation and reconstruction phase. The main focus will be on the areas of Sindh and Balochistan in particular where the flood water will take time to dry. The Federal Minister for Water Resources is holding meetings at regular intervals and with the consensus of relevant authorities decisions are being taken. Pakistan has been badly affected by the impacts of climate change and there is a dire need to devise new policies to face these threats. Today it is Pakistan that is affected and tomorrow there could be any other country. The international community has supported the flood affected people to a great extent and food and other items are being provided to them.
