The flood-prone areas need a plan for safe and secure housing structures to avoid recurrence of a disastrous situation in future, Dr Ayaz Ahmad of the Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE) shared these views with the WealthPK.<br \/>\nDr Ayaz suggested that the government construct houses for flood victims in a safe area where there is no possibility of flooding in future. The houses should be constructed vertically rather than horizontally, and In order to build high quality houses, the government should import raw materials with a high life expectancy at low prices, he said.<br \/>\nHe said the government recently completed 100 housing units for flood victims in Tank (KP) within one month. These units are constructed with the latest construction materials and technologies to withstand extreme weather conditions, and are equipped with basic necessities such as solar system, schools, clinics, etc.<br \/>\n\u201cThe floods have badly damaged the education sector. In order to overcome this issue, schools have been included in this housing project. The school is equipped with computers and other modern facilities,\u201d he added.<br \/>\n\u201cThe health sector also suffered the worst, with water-borne diseases spreading in the flood-affected areas. A medical clinic equipped with advanced technology has been established by the government for protection and health care of the public. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>high quality houses ISLAMABAD More than 8,000,00 houses have been damaged and about 1.5 million partially washed away by floods in Pakistan.
