Karachi: Verification at Manghopir

12th September, 2010 (Eid 2nd Day)

After receiving a confirmation that a brief list has been prepared for the IDPs at Manghopir, on the 2nd day of Eid we visited the place. At the place the registration was continued from Fajr timings and a list of around 263 families was present with the following information:

Person name
Fathers’Name
Pre-flood resident area
NIC number
Number of family members

After an scrutiny phase of the list and confirmation about the pre-flood resident area of the IDPs there, we decided to serve ration for ~250 families there. Our next step is to search for a ration vendor in a nearby location to Manghopir who can give us cheaper rates and quicker delivery.

Karachi – Transportation of Clothes and Slippers to Khairpur District

Updates of 12th September 2010 (2nd day of Eid ul Fitr) and 13th September 2010 (3rd day of Eid ul Fitr)

In the early hours of 2nd day of Eid ul Fitr, we left for Orangi Town via Katti Pahari to execute, load and transport order of 1080 slippers to our warehouse in Karachi. By 3:00pm we were able to unload all slippers in our warehouse and soon after that we went to Light House to purchase and transport 106 Men Kurta Shalwar Suits. At 4:30pm we started loading all items on a truck and at 6:30pm our truck departed for Khairpur City in Khairpur District. Estimated time for the truck to reach its destination was 10 – 12 hours.

We then started packing for our trip by road on our private vehicle to Khairpur City and for that we went to car service center and wasted almost 3 hours due to rush. We came back around 12:00pm and now have just a couple of hours for rest after such a hectic day because we will have to gather at 2:00pm and leave for Khairpur City by 3:00pm. The total distance we had to cover was somewhere around 540 km.
