Prevention is better than cure

With the release of the Flood Inquiry Commission's detailed report, submitted to the Supreme Court, it has become evident the malaise of corruption, negligence and failure to perform tasks responsibly led to the breach of the Tori Dyke during the last year's devastating floods. Though the report states that the breach was not intentional, but it cost the loss of more than 850 billion rupees, besides a loss of one additional Rabi crop in Jaffarabad district of Balochistan.
