“In the creation of the cosmos and the earth, in the succession of the night and the day, in the vessels that sail across the seas and oceans with cargoes beneficial to human beings, in the water that ALLAH sends down from the sky clouds with which HE brings to life the earth soil after it becomes dead-barren, causing all manner of living creatures to multiply on it, in changing the direction and velocity of the winds, and, the clouds that run their appointed courses between the sky and the earth. Surely, these are the great wonders of ALLAH for those men and women young and old, who possess wisdom and rational intellect”. (Surah Al-Baqra:164) (Translation by Mr. Badr Hashemi) Page 10 of 211
FOREWORD The Hon’ble Supreme Court of Pakistan constituted a Commission to enquire into the pleadings of various petitioners regarding the 2010 Flood which engulfed the whole country and caused unprecedented damage to life and property. 2. The finalization of the Report took longer than the period assigned to the Commission originally due to the large volume of work involved and the complexities prevalent in most of the important sectors which necessitated more indepth interactions with concerned institutions in light of the Terms of Reference contained in the thirteen formulations of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of Pakistan in its Order dated 15 th December, 2010 passed in the relevant Constitution Petitions. 3. We would like to acknowledge the assistance and support by all the Ministries and Institutions of the Federal Government as well as the Provincial Governments, in the completion of the task assigned to us. The Hon’ble Prime Minister had graciously spared his official helicopter for four days that facilitated our field visits to three provinces. 4. We are also grateful to the civil society organizations, the media representatives and the public at large for their unqualified support. 5. We would like to place on record our appreciation of the support and assistance provided to us by the Cabinet Division, Government of Pakistan, particularly by Brig Zulfiqar Ali Gorsi, Director General (Military Wing) and his staff in the Cabinet Division, Islamabad. 6. The invaluable assistance provided to us by Mr. Sajid Mehmood Qazi, Facilitator / Additional Registrar, Supreme Court and his staff is highly appreciated. Page 11 of 211
