According to latest official data available on Monday, the government registered 35,381 families including 114,596 males, 137,301 females and 183,532 children. On June 15, Pakistan launched the military operation Zarb-e-Azb against militants in the troubled North Waziristan agency of Federally
Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) that resulted in a temporary migration and relocation of displaced persons from the area of operation to safer locations.
Consistent to the earlier instructions, the government assigned the task to the Ministry of States and Frontier Regions (SAFRON) to make necessary rehabilitation arrangement of IDPs. However this time the government decided to engage National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) too in the process which is in line with the mandate of the organization.

The relief camps were immediately established at the onset of operation. The main IDPs camp has been established in BakaKhel, Union Council in district Bannu of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Unfortunately not many people have opted to live in the camp and the bulk preferred to live with their relatives and host communities as per past practice. The team, alongwith senior civil and military officials, monitored IDPs camp management to ensure that people are facilitated with all necessary apparatus and arrangements. The relief camps have been provided with all necessary facilities including provision of shelter, health, hygiene, latrines, cooked food, electricity and mosque.
Food and financial assistance is being rendered to the affected people at the time of registration at check points. NADRA mobile registration points have been put in place at the check points too.
Polio vaccination of entire displaced population and health check up of those in need is also being ensured at check posts.
Furthermore, free transport has been arranged for daily evacuations to bring the IDPs to relief camps.
There are efforts to expand the camps and make additional arrangements to facilitate all those IDPs who wish to live and return in the camp. In this connection a field hospital is also being set up jointly by the army and civil administration to meet the additional demand due to influx of 45,000 IDPs in to the area.
Food and cash distribution for the affected population is also being done in the area.
WFP has also established a food point in the area, with the approval of federal government and their assistance is being largely appreciated.
