It is worthy to mention here that due to dereliction of duty, mismanagement and corruption district administration has completely failed to provide rescue and emergency services to citizens of Kashmore. However citizans of Kashmore facing severe hardship owing to , non availability of rescue, civil defense and other emergency services, here a question arises that whether citizens of district Kashmore have no right for any relief and protection to their precious lives as they have been deprived of rescue service and centre. Even (DDMA) District Disaster Management Authority is not functional having no any hotline number to be contacted in time of any emergency or incident. Whereas the people of rural areas have never been heard of these services centres, rescues and civil defense.
