HYDERABAD -UNS : Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari visited several villages in Hyderabad district to inspect the houses constructed under the Government of Sindh’s flagship initiative — Sindh People’s Housing for Flood Affectees (SPHF) — for those displaced by the 2022 floods. He reviewed the basic facilities available at the sites and distributed ownership certificates to the beneficiaries. Chairman said that the PPP-led Sindh Government has not only fulfilled its promise of rebuilding homes for flood survivors but has taken a transformative step by awarding ownership rights in the name of women from the affected families — ensuring that an entire generation is empowered to move forward.
According to details Bilawal House, Chairman PPP visited the villages of Haroon Sheikh, Jhundo Khoso, and Himmatabad in Hyderabad district. Speaking on the occasion, he said that a large portion of the construction work for the houses has been completed, and these homes have now become valuable economic assets for the flood-affected families. He said that it was a significant decision by the Government of Sindh to allot the ownership rights of the newly constructed houses in the names of the women of the affected families. “These homes will now be a great asset for you, an economic asset. You will be able to pass them on to your children in the future. These houses and this roof over your heads will remain yours forever — no one will be able to take them away from you.”
Meanwhile, Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari inspected a tactile tile track constructed in Village Gul Hassan to assist visually impaired children in navigation. During his visit, he met two visually impaired children from a flood-affected family — nine-year-old Gul Hassan and thirteen-year-old Sajjad — who briefed the PPP Chairman about how the tactile tile track helps them find their way.

Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari also visited a school and dispensary in the flood-affected village of Himmatabad.
