Islamabad: Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif says the federal government is working with Balochistan government to provide immediate relief to the flood-affected people in the province.

The Prime Minister said the ongoing relief work will be further accelerated.
He said about three hundred people, including 124 from Balochistan, have lost their lives in the floods.

He said these are certainly challenging times for the flood-affected people but the government will not leave any stone unturned to provide them relief and ensure their rehabilitation.
