Support Beyond Compensation
In addition to compensation for the deceased victims’ families, the Sindh government has introduced several relief measures aimed at helping those whose livelihoods were destroyed:
Interest-free loans for shopkeepers affected by the fire
Financial assistance to help businesses restart operations
Plans to provide alternative shops for displaced traders
Immediate relief payments to meet urgent needs
The provincial administration has already begun distributing compensation cheques to multiple affected families, ensuring timely support during a difficult period.
A Step Toward Recovery
The Gul Plaza fire not only claimed precious lives but also severely impacted small traders and workers who depended on the commercial center for their income. While no compensation can fully heal the pain of such loss, the Rs 10 million package and rehabilitation initiatives aim to provide financial stability and a path forward for the victims and their families.
