Torrential monsoon rains commenced in late July 2010, triggering massive floods that swept through the Pakistan provinces of Baluchistan, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), Pakistan Administered Kashmir (AJK), Gilgit Baltistan, and Sindh. 709 houses were constructed. The initial amount was increased by 9 houses due to the need.
