After the emergency relief work, it was thought appropriate to carry out Rehabilitation Project for Earthquake Victims. Houses with tin-roofs and hollow cement blocks are being constructed with the help of the local people. The total cost of one such house is Rs.100,000 (US $1670 ) out of which 70% of the cost is being financed by World Memon Organisation, Pakistan Chapter and 30% is paid by the local people.

165 houses have already been constructed out of which 70 houses have been built in Thala (Birot – situated at 7000 feet above sea level) and 60 houses have been built in Shanghreri (10,500 feet above sea level). And 35 houses have been constructed in Kala-Dacca (Tha Kot – 7500 feet above sea level). Ten houses are under construction in Shanghreri. We intend to construct another 115 houses in the earthquake affected areas.

A school which was completely destroyed in the earthquake affected area of Thala, Birot is being reconstructed. A mosque situated at Thala, Birot which was badly damaged is being rebuilt. A small dispensary for the benefit of the local people has been built in Thala, Birot.

The local people have renamed their villages in appreciation of the contribution of the Memon community as under:

      THALA (BIROT)  renamed as DHOKE MEMON

      SHANGHRERI  renamed as MEMONABAD

      KALA-DACCA  renamed as MEMON NAGAR

We have built a cemented road measuring 4.5 kms in Shanghreri which is 10,000 feet above sea level. The cemented road has been named as ‘MEMON STREET’. A big water tank along with water supply lines has been built at Memonabad (Shanghreri) which supplies potable water to different parts of the village.
