“We have to play the hand that we are dealt. Both earthquakes and flash floods are part of the country. We cannot wish them away,” said Lt Gen (retd) Amjad Shoaib. “It is imperative for us to try to bring them into the mainstream.”

Actor and activist Hamza Ali Abbasi has already posted a photo of his on Facebook, standing in front of a village devastated by a flash flood in Charsadda, said that both earthquakes and flash floods were often misunderstood. “US, UK and other western powers give Pakistan so much money to fight these two. Have we ever wondered whether this is even our war?”
