QUETTA, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 16th Apr, 2024) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of PPAF, Nadir Gul Bareach has said that in response to the destructive floods that have wreaked havoc in Gwadar district.
He expressed these views while talking to the media representatives during distribution of relief aid to flood victims.
He said that the Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund (PPAF) has swiftly launched an emergency relief operation to extend vital assistance to affected communities.

Collaborating with Strengthening Participatory Organization (SPO), PPAF devised a comprehensive strategy under the banner of the "Emergency Relief Assistance to 2024 Flood-Affected Communities in Gwadar" project, he mentioned.
He said that central to this effort was the procurement and distribution of essential relief items, meticulously curated to meet the immediate needs of flood-affected households.
The relief packages, funded by PPAF and implemented by SPO, comprised both food and non-food items tailored to provide sustenance, hygiene, and comfort to those in distress. Among the items distributed were rice, lentils, ghee, flour, salt, sugar, tea, milk powder, household items and hygiene kits. These relief items were distributed to the 400 families of eight wards of union council Surbandar, district Gwadar, he said.
CEO PPAF, Nadir Gul Barech highlighted the importance of swift and coordinated action in times of crisis, stating, "Solidarity and support are crucial during such challenges." He further emphasized, "PPAF remains committed to standing with the people of Gwadar, providing hope and assistance when it is needed most."
