Pakistan quake survivors protest against compensation delay
Over 1,000 survivors of last year’s earthquake held a rally outside Parliament in the Pakistani capital Islamabad today to protest delays in releasing compensation to them for rebuilding homes.
Chanting slogans such as “Stop taking bribes!”, “Stop cheating us!” and “Build our homes before snowfall”, the protesters marched from the Parliament to the offices of the Earthquake Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Authority, which is responsible for releasing aid money to them for reconstruction.
