Minister for Railways and Aviation Khawaja Saad Rafique says the government will announce a comprehensive strategy for rehabilitation of flood-affected areas soon.
\nHe was addressing a news conference alongside Adviser to Prime Minister on Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit-Baltistan Qamar Zaman Kaira in Islamabad on Wednesday.
\nKhawaja Saad Rafique asked all political forces to show unity in this testing time instead of pursuing their own vested interests.
\nThe Minister said the entire international community is helping Pakistan in this crisis situation but PTI is engaged in political bickering and is diverting the attention from flood situation since first day of this calamity.
\nAbout the economic situation, Khawaja Saad Rafique said economic self-reliance is our sole destination and IMF fund is only a temporary relief.
\nSpeaking on the occasion, Adviser to PM Qamar Zaman Kaira said armed forces, civilian institutions, welfare organization and all relevant authorities are fully focused on relief and rescue of flood-affected people.
\nHe said political point scoring at this critical juncture is highly regrettable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
