“Sixteen years have passed since this devastating earthquake, but the Post-Earthquake Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Authority did not rebuild schools, health, and other infrastructure,” Khalil-ur-Rahman said.

Mian Ashraf, on this occasion, said that Era announced the return of the housing project land that was either encroached or seized by local residents until October 20 and the resumption of its development.

He added, “If the Al-Ara Association fails to resume the implementation of this huge housing project within a specified period, we will hold a protest outside the provincial council building in Peshawar.”

Merchants also noted shutter strike to celebrate the day and took part in rallies. Events were also held at various places in Balakot in connection with the tragedy.
