Posted by Admin on 30 Aug 2022
No one teaches volcanoes to erupt, waters to flood, locusts to destroy, and earthquakes to wreak havoc yet it all is a cruel part of nature. It resets itself despite all the worthless efforts of man to make it a “better” place. It is yet again in the act of resetting showing us humans how powerless we are and how worthless our efforts are when mother nature is threatened.In light of recent events, Let’s Compare Online (Pvt) Ltd has decided to raise its voice and stand with the victims of the flood. We are using our platform to raise awareness and be the voice of our beloved customers and non-customers from the affected areas. The floods have taken our country and are mercilessly snatching the shade off of many heads. Even though nature is ruthless, a man in authority is capable of avoiding the maximum damage and taking protective measures to prevent as much damage as he can. And yet we are again at the mercy of the Almighty, watching our brothers and mothers drown helplessly.Recent UpdatesAs of now, the government has declared a national emergency in light of recent flooding. Over 33 million people have been affected by the floods making it around 15% of our population. The average rainfall has been more than usual in the month of August. The most affected part has been southern Pakistan, specifically Sindh which experienced the highest rate of rainfall this monsoon. The rate has been 8 times higher than usual.Around 30 districts in Sindh are currently under heavy flood. This flood is way heavier than what we experienced in 2010.
