No management in this disaster

Author: Daily Times

Sir: Deaths related to the floods of 2015 do not seem to be abating. As many as 59 people have been killed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. This is a travesty of justice. Why has the government been left woefully unprepared once again to deal with the devastation caused by the floods each and every monsoon season? The disaster management authorities are a disaster onto themselves; each and every one of them should be given the boot.
The people, whose homes and lives have been drowned in these floodwaters, have had enough. There will be a reckoning for this negligence.
