Rising Water Pollution in Pakistan




Water pollution is second most dangerous variable that is becoming common issue for Pakistan and for various countries. Water is need of every living thing on the earth toward the day's end it is doubtful to live without water. Drinking water quality is ineffectively overseen and checked. Pakistan positions at number 80 among 122 countries with respect to drinking water quality . Around 62 percent of Pakistan’s urban and 84 percent of its rural population does not treat their water, resulting in 100 million cases of diarrheal diseases registered in hospitals. Inadequate quantity and quality of potable water and poor sanitation facilities are associated with a host of illnesses and a study conducted by UNICEF found that 20-40 percent of the hospital beds in Pakistan are occupied by patients suffering from water-related diseases.

Edhi, One of Pakistan's greatest Humanitarians passes away


Once there was a legend, who consumed his life for humanity. He set new standards of selflessness and charity. His services for humanity has surpassed all the bounds. This man was a Pakistani who was admired and revered by all and sundry. But alas, as of 8th July 2016 at the ripe, old age of 88; this soul is no more among us but he will live in our hearts forever. He is a true role model for humanity.

Even leading up to his untimely demise, he wanted to help and thus, donated his organs. Though, only his cornea could be used as the rest of his organs weren't healthy. I hope whoever receives his cornea not only gets his sight but also his vision for the world. His now, famous quote, 'No religion is higher than humanity" can not be any more relevant in these times with rampant extremist attacks, ultra-nationalistic xenophobia on the rise among other things.
