Siasat Daily has taken the task of educational and economic upliftment of oppressed Muslims through Millat Fund. In this effort it enjoys complete cooperation and support of Faiz-e-Aam Trust. The devastating flood the likes of which Srinagar had not seen even in 1893 has killed at least 150 people. Two thousand houses have been completely destroyed in the Valley. More than 20,000 have suffered partial damage. Businesses have been shattered, agriculture has been devastated and families have been uprooted from their homes. In this testing time medicines worth Rs. 10 lakh were sent through Siasat Millat Fund.
Recently a delegation led by Siasat editor Mr. Zahed Ali Khan visited Srinagar and its outskirts and took stock of the situation. The delegation included Managing Editor Siasat Mr. Zaheeruddin Ali Khan, secretary Faiz-e-Aam Trust Mr. Iftekhar Husain, Trustee Mr. Rizwan Hyder and others. The delegation after reviewing the situation has decided to restore schools and set up computer centres in cyclone-hit localities. Local people thanked Mr. Zahed Ali Khan saying that Siasat always comes forward to help Kashmiris in times of need.
