Sardar Mehtab Abbasi issued the suspension orders following which Secretary Administration Abdul Majeed was posted as acting DG FDMA.

So far more than 900,000 IDPs have been registered with the FDMA, among them 235,499 are male and 261,734 are female, and the rest 393,636 are children who are faced with sever health hazards and ailments.

Almost half of that number, mostly children and women, face serious health hazards due to poor hygienic conditions, in addition to severe hot weather which has increased ARI (Acute Respiratory Infection), gastro infections, skin and other water borne diseases.
