NDRF launches advanced medical facilities to expedite rescue in flooded Kashmir

Srinagar, Sep 21 (ANI): The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) team launched advanced medical services to expedite rescue and relief operations in flood-ravaged Jammu and Kashmir. An ambulance equipped with several advanced emergency medical facilities and vehicles were launched. These facilities will be used in inaccessible areas where patients are stuck and face difficulties in reaching out for health care. Meanwhile, a medical camp was set up in the summer capital of Srinagar where hundreds of flood victims received varied medical services. Men, women, children and the elderly stood in queues for check-ups and treatment besides receiving emergency medicines. Due to floodwater logging in various parts of the state, several water-borne diseases have started to crop up and the valley is on the threshold of an epidemic. Sep 21, 2014

A declaration for Independence of Balochistan

Quetta/ Geneva, Sep 08: The largest and resource-rich province of Pakistan, Balochistan, celebrate August 11 as its `Independence Day' and blames Pakistan for its illegal occupation since 1948. Facing poverty, unemployment, illiteracy and inequity, the people in Balochistan feel a deep sense of insecurity and disgruntlement against the Pakistan regime. Human rights violations have reached `epidemic proportions' in the region. On August 11, 2014, Baloch nationalist leaders issued a written declaration demanding Balochistan's independence. The declaration forwarded to the concerned authorities says that Pakistani armed forces have launched a campaign of ethnic cleansing and genocide in Balochistan, and are systematically kidnapping, imprisoning and murdering Baloch political activists, students, lawyers, intellectuals and nationalist leaders.
