Flood in Pakistan




Eid in refugee camps
Pakistan flood trauma dulls Eid festive spirit
Pakistani Muslims on Saturday took part in low-key celebrations for the Eid al-Fitr festival, as millions still
languish without shelter after the nation's worst-ever floods.

Eid is the most important festival in the Islamic calendar -- marking the end of the fasting month of Ramadan --
but celebrations were muted Saturday as the fallout from devastating floods continues.
The deluges have left 10 million people without shelter nationwide, according to UN figures, with UN spokesman
Maurizio Giuliano describing it as "one of the worst humanitarian disasters in UN history."

In a normal year Pakistanis would have been scurrying home last night for a weekend of gluttony-tinged
indulgence marking Eid al-Fitr, the end of the fasting month of Ramadan and Islam's near equivalent of
Christmas. But this is no normal year.

With 21 million people - almost one-eighth of the population - affected by the worst floods in memory, which
began more than six weeks ago , and broad swathes of the country still under water, many have no homes to go
to, and no mosques to attend, and have dragged on through Ramadan, with more than eight million reliant on aid
handouts for survival.


President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani mentioned the "miseries and grief" of the flood
victims in their separate Eid messages to nation.
"We cannot celebrate the day with traditional fanfare and festivities when millions of our countrymen have been
rendered shelterless as villages, towns and cities have been destroyed by the floods," Zardari said.

Away from the flood-ravaged areas, in the main cities, sparkling Eid lights still drape the streets. But inside
homes a new austerity has curtailed the festive spirit.

damage to infrastructure and agriculture, the mainstay of the economy.

Flood in pakistan part 11-Eid in Refugee Camps

  • 1. Flood in Pakistan Eid in refugee camps
  • 2. Pakistan flood trauma dulls Eid festive spirit Pakistani Muslims on Saturday took part in low-key celebrations for the Eid al-Fitr festival, as millions still languish without shelter after the nation's worst-ever floods. Eid is the most important festival in the Islamic calendar -- marking the end of the fasting month of Ramadan -- but celebrations were muted Saturday as the fallout from devastating floods continues. The deluges have left 10 million people without shelter nationwide, according to UN figures, with UN spokesman Maurizio Giuliano describing it as "one of the worst humanitarian disasters in UN history." In a normal year Pakistanis would have been scurrying home last night for a weekend of gluttony-tinged indulgence marking Eid al-Fitr, the end of the fasting month of Ramadan and Islam's near equivalent of Christmas. But this is no normal year. With 21 million people - almost one-eighth of the population - affected by the worst floods in memory, which began more than six weeks ago , and broad swathes of the country still under water, many have no homes to go to, and no mosques to attend, and have dragged on through Ramadan, with more than eight million reliant on aid handouts for survival. President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani mentioned the "miseries and grief" of the flood victims in their separate Eid messages to nation. "We cannot celebrate the day with traditional fanfare and festivities when millions of our countrymen have been rendered shelterless as villages, towns and cities have been destroyed by the floods," Zardari said. Away from the flood-ravaged areas, in the main cities, sparkling Eid lights still drape the streets. But inside homes a new austerity has curtailed the festive spirit.
