Pakistan's federal government has set up a rehabilitation and relief fund for earthquake victims in Balochistan and asked people to donate generously.
The Prime Minister's Balochistan Earthquake Relief Fund, set up immediately through a Finance Division notification, has been established in all scheduled banks and people can make donations in the fund's account.
Donations can be deposited in the State Bank Treasuries, all branches of National Bank and all branches of scheduled banks, an official statement said.
Pakistani missions abroad can also receive donations.
Cabinet Division in consultation with the Finance Division will administer this fund.
"Prime Minister has appealed to the nation for donating generously to the Prime Minister's Relief Fund-2013 and stand by their Baloch brethren in their hour of adversity," it said.
