DERA ISMAIL KHAN: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former Prime Minister Imran Khan said that only way to avoid disaster caused by floods is to build dams. PTI Chairman visited flood-affected areas of province along with KP Chief Minister Mahmood Khan, where both Imran and Mahmood inspected damages and relief activities in affected districts.

While visiting camp of flood-affected people in Dera Ismail Khan, he said that Sindh and Balochistan have faced more destruction due to floods. He said that even in 2010, country did not suffer from floods as much as it is suffering now.

Emphasising importance of construction of dams to prevent floods, PTI chairman said there were plans to build 10 dams across country during his tenure. He appealed to people of country to extend their support for relief and rehabilitation of flood-affected people.

He said inflation cannot be stopped until economic stability comes to country. Taking a swipe at coalition government, Imran said that country is ruled by criminals and one of them is abroad. Sharing his views on upcoming by-elections, Imran added that his party will claim victory. Imran also shared a post on his Twitter and penned, “Went today with CM KP to see flood devastated areas of DIKhan and Tank yesterday.
