Significantly, due to the unprecedented floods caused by heavy rains in Pakistan, since June 14, 1,576 people have died and thousands have been injured.

Pakistan is facing the worst flood situation in the last 30 years and a third of the country is submerged.

About three crore 30 lakh people are affected by this and houses, crops, bridges, roads and animals have been destroyed.


The flood has caused an estimated $30 billion in damage so far.

Biden said in the presence of Pakistan's Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, "Families face seemingly impossible choices and are unable to decide which children to feed and whom not to."

There is also a question mark on whether he will survive or not.

The price of climate change is being paid by humans and this problem is increasing.”
