In a significant step to compensate flood victims, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government has launched a mobile app-based digital payment system to ensure transparent and timely payments.
Chief Minister Ali Amin Khan Gandapur inaugurated the app, Digital Disaster Compensation Management, developed by the KP Information Technology Board and integrated with the government’s central service delivery platform “Dastak.”
Through the platform, flood-affected families will get compensation for damaged properties directly via online transfers.
Notably, victims will be able to upload detailed videos or images of property losses and submit claims digitally.
Using geo-tagging, the platform aims to eliminate false claims, while verification of damages and disbursement of payments will be fully automated.
Moreover, a dedicated dashboard will give real-time data on damages and payments to the chief minister, chief secretary, and other senior officials.
"The flood-affected people deserve our utmost attention and support," the chief minister said. "In this difficult time, all of us must come forward generously to help them."
Calling it a “major step” toward transparent and swift payments, Gandapur lauded the IT board for developing the app in record time.
“The app will ensure not only speedy relief for victims but also complete transparency in the process,” he said.
The government has enhanced relief operations in the flood-affected areas, particularly in Buner, where emergency camps have been established to assist victims.
