Once a UN Volunteer, always a volunteer: Danish Murad on responding to the floods in Pakistan

He is distributing food rations and household supplies and surveying the damage suffered by the people for the district administration in Balochistan. Currently working as a reporter for the GNN News national channel; his prior experience as a national UN Volunteer stirred him to respond to the flood crisis in his region.
