    RELIEF AREA VISIT to PAKISTAN 13Th – 26Th JUNE 2013 1

    RELIEF AREA VISIT TO PAKISTAN 13th – 26th JUNE 2013 1. Introduction and acknowledgements The Anglican Alliance brings together development, relief and advocacy across the Anglican Communion. We were established as an initiative of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Anglican Communion, starting our operations in January 2011 with a series of global consultations with partner Churches and agencies. These consultations identified capacity- building as the priority in our relief work. The provision of training schemes and tools would be developed with local Churches and agencies working with communities in disaster-prone areas. Furthermore, it was decided that one focus for this work should be on the preparedness stage, aimed at mobilising Churches and communities to take preventive measures before disasters strike. For the last three monsoon seasons Pakistan has been severely affected by heavy rain and floods. The Diocese of Hyderabad was particularly hard-hit in 2011. It covers Sindh Province, excluding Karachi which forms its own diocese. Unusual rain patterns and unpredictable weather conditions have made people fear that floods might come at any time during the year. Furthermore, there is a poor weather forecast for the 2013 monsoon season. To encourage the communities to be prepared before the oncoming monsoons, the Alliance engaged in a collaborative process to produce a resource that could be used by the community for discussion and mobilisation in preparation for flooding. Through consultation we developed a large cloth book, measuring approximately 1m2, made from a very durable and high quality nylon fabric (made from recycled plastic bottles). Drawing from more high level publications, we developed a series of brightly-coloured, culturally-appropriate drawings, with simple messaging and discussion points written in Urdu on alternate pages.

    PRF Report on Drought/Famine Affected Tharparkar @Mithi

    Pakistan Relief Foundation Report on Drought/Famine Affected Tharparkar @Mithi (Situation, actions taken and long term solutions) Let’s say something about Drought-affected Tharparkar@ Mithi District: This district of Sindh province is headquartered at its city namely Mithi. Tough wolrd’s sixth largest coal reserves are lying in the land of this district but it has the lowest Human Development Index among all districts of the province. The most of population of the area use to speak with each other in “Dhatki”, the local language since many decades. It is Indian bordering district. The district has four other talukas with over 2,000 villages spread across the largest desert region in the country. People can’t cultivate crops on their lands as there is desert everywhere. Tharparkar is a biggest desert of Sindh and Pakistan. Local population use to wait for monsoon rains which occur for their bread and butter. Assessed reasons of drought/famine: According to the assessment conducted by PRF’s team, Tharparkar @ Mithi district, which usually receives rainfall only during the monsoon season, witnessed scattered and delayed rains during monsoon-2013. The rain deficit in parts of district resulted in less-than-average agriculture production and shortage of fodder for livestock. The situation aggravated in the months October, November, and December with the outbreak of sheep pox and other diseases which affected more than 0.1 million livestock. Later, situation turned into severe phase and innocent children became the target of drought. Failures on the part of Sindh Government: It could be recalled easily that in August 2012, last provincial government (led by Pakistan People’s Party) had declared Tharparkar calamity-hit as they had assessed the situation of drought on time and they succeeded to to save the livestock and precious lives of local people.

Two districts in the province have extremely critical levels (IPC AMN Phase 5) of acute malnutrition– i.e. about every third child in these districts is suffering from acute malnutrition. Six other districts have critical levels (IPC AMN Phase 4) of acute malnutrition. Although the 6 districts are classified as in IPC AMN Phase 4, 2 of them have acute malnutrition closer to IPC AMN Phase 5. Where – Among the 8 drought affected districts notified by Govt. of Sindh in 2018, the districts with extremely critical levels of acute malnutrition are namely Tharparkar and Umerkot. Six other districts such as Jamshoro, Kambar Shahdadkot, Badin, Dadu, Sanghar, and Thatta are classified as being in IPC AMN Phase 4. Of these 6 districts, 2 of them, i.e. Kambar Shahdadkot and Badin, have acute malnutrition levels very close to IPC AMN Phase 5. Why – The major factors contributing to acute malnutrition include very poor quality and quantity of food, high food insecurity, poor sanitation coverage, and high incidence of low birthweight. Additionally, exclusive breastfeeding and access to safe drinking water are also of concern in several districts.

    Updates of NRSP's Response to Floods 2011, As of November 13

    1 Update – As of 13th November, 2011 Introduction – Cause of the Disaster While the memories of devastating 2010 floods are still fresh, another deluge has hit the province of Sindh. Year 2011 monsoon rains started from 10th August caused havoc and created a flood like situation in southern districts of Sindh and the rains are continued increasing the miseries of people in the affected areas. District Badin, Mirpurkhas, Tando Allahyar, Tando Mohammad Khan, Tharparkar, Shaheed Benazirabad,Thatta and Umerkot are among the worst hit areas and millions of people are stranded in flooded villages. Due to the heavy and uninterrupted rains number of canals and surface drains have over topped due to excess water discharges. Various breaches in canals and drains connected with Left Bank Outfall Drain (LBOD) have left thousands of villages inundated. A large number of people, including women and children, have been displaced who have taken shelter on road side, canal embankments and other nearby government buildings. Some people have lost their lives, thousands have become homeless, cattle died, and standing crops have perished. Communication system in the affected areas has also been severely disturbed resulting in further miseries. Some of the mobile networks are not working or reception is very poor, similarly internet services are also often not available Proactive Role of NRSP – Rapid Assessment of the Disaster NRSP operates in almost all flood affected area of the District Badin, Mirpurkhas, Thatta, Shaheed Benazirabad, Tando Allahyar and Tando Mohammad Khan. NRSP has been able to conduct a rapid assessment of flood damages. To complete this assessment, the organisation has capitalised its network of Local Support Organizations, Community Organisations and activists to facilitate information collection providing a full and up to date overview of the scale of the disaster, and the location of those affected.

    Assimilation and Incidental Differences in Sindhi Language

    Eurasian Journal of Humanities Vol. 2. Issue 1. (2016) ISSN: 2413-9947 Assimilation and incidental differences in Sindhi language Ahdi Hassan Pakistan Languages Corpora, Islamabad, Pakistan [email protected], Abstract This research paper is an attempt to describe assimilation and incidental differences in the Sindhi language. The purpose of this study is to offer a comparative study of two dialects of the Sindhi language Vicholi and Siroli. The project examined different aspects of Sindhi phonology, as well as some features of Sindhi syntax and morphology. Although studies conducted on the Sindhi phonology are briefly described, there is still a need to analyze it further. The sample for the study is taken from ten Vicholi participants and ten Siroli participants of these two different dialects of the Sindhi language. The pronunciation of sample words was recorded first, then transcribed phonetically and then, finally analyzed. These dialects were compared to find out similarities and differences in them. This paper examines assimilation and incidental differences which are very common observable occurrences and cross linguistic features. Two main questions were posed. How can patterns of assimilation be different from one another? Is it happening all the time to come up analysis with unified patterns of assimilation? This work is based on fieldwork in region Shikarpur and Khairpur; The data collected by making recordings with different background of social such as professionals advice , different age, unpremeditated of storytelling and speech , storytelling. The results show very clear distinctions and dissimilarities among the speakers of these two different dialects of Sindhi language in Pakistan. Keywords: Sindhi, Siroli, Vicholi , assimilation, incidental differences Introduction Sindhi language belongs to an Indo-Aryan family of languages with its root in the River Indus Valley (Minahan, 2012).
