As of today, 15 days after leaving Pakistan he will return home and find that water levels have been restored as normal. Shahid is back with his family but has also decided not visit them anymore because they cannot help themselves by drinking or bathing due all these problems which started when a new law was passed recently during Diwali (the festival) last year – this brings out some serious questions around why an individual like Shahidi needs anyone at present trying be supportive for him/her? According-to official sources people who took part on Tuesday are saying: "We still do try and give each other support even though there are so many issues.

Shahid Afridi's dedication towards helping the people suffering from water crisis in Pakistan was recently highlighted. Shahid Afridi came forward to help the people who are suffering from water shortage in Cholistan. He donated his personal funds and saved many lives. On this occasion, he said that he did not want any donation but if someone wants to donate then they should do it. Afridi said that he wanted to contribute towards saving the life of the poor and needy. He was impressed over the work being done by the volunteers of Save Water Cholistan. The organization works towards providing clean drinking water to the locals of Cholistan region at affordable prices. In addition to this, they also provide other services like health checkups, blood pressure checks, etc.

 It is worth mentioning that the efforts of Afridi were appreciated by everyone. His contribution has been acknowledged by the organization and their team members thanked him in their Facebook post. They praised Afridi’s work and said that they would continue working with him for the betterment of the society. Shahid Afridi Came Forward to Help the People Suffering from Water Crisis in Cholistan (Video) The people of South Kashmir have suffered a water crisis because of lack on infrastructure and demand for more wells. This has forced residents into secluded areas without running any taps or taking potable drinking water at all. 

These poor living conditions are causing great pain and distress among them, especially those who suffer chronic diseases like diabetes, which is widespread throughout India. There was some relief after Shahid Akhtar came forward with his own ideas regarding solving this problem through investing resources by providing pipes directly towards existing users instead asking private companies to dig out their sewage systems. Such an investment would give these desperate men shelter under trees, clean roofs.

By the Grace of Allah, we have equipped the people of #Cholistan with 18000 litres of water, & will be bringing further aid through provision of first aid equipment & medicines to the Rescue 1122 teams. Donate & help us ensure #HopeNotOut for all in this region Insha’Allah. https://t.co/H5MUyOQODu
