Secretary Relief
The Relief Rehabilitation and Settlement Department (RR&SD) is mandated to formulate Policies, Strategies and Guidelines for Relief, Rehabilitation and Emergency activities in the Province. Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA), Rescue 1122 and Directorate of Civil Defence serve as implementation agencies of RR&SD to effect these instruments.
The Provincial Government attaches due value to human lives and well-being. Therefore, it considers RR&SD as one of the priority Departments which operates not only to save human lives in events of disaster but also ensures human well being through rehabilitation and resettlement. RR&SD and its attached formations are equipped with state-of-the-art physical facilities and finest human resource to discharge their mandate.
RR&SD has displayed tremendous capacity of evolving overtime to respond to changing nature of disaster. This is why when locust swarms entered the Province in January, 2020 or emergency arose due to outbreak of COVID - 19 pandemic, RR&SD swiftly rose to the occasion to manage situation.
We pray to Allah that RR&SD continues to maintain its high standards of operational capabilities so that the prime objective of the Provincial Government i.e. security and well-being of people of the Province is ensured in the days to come.
