Flood-hit areas await survey a year after devastation

Almost a year has passed since floods inundated three tehsils in Makran around the Mirani Dam, but the government has not carried out a survey to determine the extent of losses. The flood inflicted property losses running into millions of rupees and dislocated several hundreds of families. Thousands of displaced flood victims are still living in tents while others have been forced to live in the open after their houses were washed away in the heavy flood that affected the Turbat district.
