INTRODUCTION

Khidmat-e-Khalq foundation (KKF) is one of the very famous NGO in Pakistan. Politicaland religious parties and social organizations ought to perform their due share in thisservice to humanity. Any political movement, which renders service to humanity, isno less than a prayer itself. Unfortunately, in our country, political and religiousorganizations have divested themselves of this responsibility, assuming it to be theprerogative of social organizations. Political and religious organizations haveconstantly claimed that when they come to power they will take necessary steps toeradicate the ills of poverty, destitution, hunger and illiteracy. They believe thatservice to humanity cannot be accomplished without controlling the reigns of power.The MQM, however, in Pakistan is the only organization, which has proved that evenwithout being in power it has nevertheless managed to achieve and set considerableexamples of service to humanity.

The Khidmat-e-Khalq Foundation (KKF) comes under the jurisdiction of the MQM. It isa highly organized, active and effective social organization. Its services are spreadover a very wide spectrum which does not only include Karachi, Hyderabad and otherurban areas of Sindh, but today, the KKF is known throughout the country for its socialservices.

The MQM didnt give birth to the KKF. The MQM was formed on 18th March, 1984whereas the APMSO was formed on 11th June, 1978. Through their intense commitmentto serve the poor students and destitute people, Mr. Altaf Hussain and his colleaguesformed the KKC (Khidmat-e-Khalq Committee) in 1978. (The KKC was transformed intoKKF, i.e. - Khidmat-e-Khalq Foundation in January 1998)

In the early 1980's the KKF actively participated in providing aid in various localities,along with educational institutions. In the city's numerous localities various, programswere organized, at different times, where sewing machines for poor widows,mattresses, quilts, clothing and cash amount were distributed and poor studentsreceived course books and cash amount to pay their fees.

In 1984, Mr. Altaf Hussain formed the MQM. As the MQM gained popularity with thepublic, the activities of KKF kept on increasing and soon it became the centre of hopefor the destitute and needy. To create a spirit of service amongst the people, theycampaigned in various ways to generate funds. By receiving donations they put intomotion the process of helping the poor and destitute, which is being continued in amost organized and effective manner. It also has the offices in UK, USA, CANADA.

MONTHLY DISBURSEMENT OF FINANCIAL AID TO THE POOR AND NEEDY:

These poor widows and students by showing their card at the KKFCentral Office receive the money apportioned for them every month. The widows aregiven aid on the basis of the number of household members in their homes. This wayKhidmat-e-Khalq Foundation is supporting thousands of people. Not only Mohajirfamilies are being aided by the KKF but the list also includes Sindhis, Baloch, Punjabis,

Saraikis and Pakhtoons, in fact, people of all the nationalities of the country. Poorstudents, besides being helped monetarily, are provided their course books, uniformsand fees. In 1996-97, the KKF distributed Rs. 0.5 million amongst the poor students,the widows and other deserving persons.

PROVISION OF DOWRIES TO DESTITUTE AND ORPHAN GIRLS FOR THEIRMARRIAGES

The marriage of girls whose parents are from low-income group is a major social and

financial problem. In many cases such girls have to face this problem themselves.The KKF provides financial help to such parents for the arrangement of marriages oftheir daughters.

ESTABLISHMENT OF MEDICAL AID CAMPS IN THE MONTH OF MOHARRAM.Every year the KKF sets up medical aid camps in various localities of each city on theoccasion of the 10th of Moharram. In these camps, doctors and paramedical staff ofthe KKFs Medical Aid Committee, provide medical aid to persons who had accidents orinjuries during the processions. These camps have all the life saving drugs and medicalaid facilities. In case of an emergency, ambulances are always readily available at

these medical aid camps.

ANNUAL DISTRIBUTION OF AID AMONGST THE DESERVING DURING THEMONTH OF RAMAZAN

KKF besides providing monthly help to poor students and deserving widows and otheroccasional aid, also arranges the distribution of sewing machines, installation ofvegetable and fruit stalls for jobless youths, wheel chairs for the handicapped, taperecorders for the blind and distribution of cash amongst thousands of poor and needy,the dependants of shaheeds (the martyrs), disabled students and widows, during themonth of Ramzan. For this annual programme, applications are usually received from

the first till the 15th or 20th of Ramazan. Each application is processed andinvestigated and each applicant is allotted aid according to his or her need.

This annual aid programme is generally held in the last week of Ramazan. Aid isdistributed irrespective of the colour, cast, creed, language or religion, to the poorand needy. And special care is taken to ensure that the aid is given only to thedeserving. Around five thousand persons receive aid through this programme everyyear. We try to ensure that poor and needy families are also able to celebrate Eid.These annual aid programmes are not only organized in Karachi, Hyderabad and theother cities of Sindh but also in Punjab, the NWFP and Balochistan. Thus the aidprogrammes of KKF have now been spreading throughout the country. Besides thisannual aid programme and monthly distribution of aid, the Khidmat-e-KhalqFoundation provides help in a variety of ways throughout the year to deserving people.

FREE MEDICAL TREATMENT AND PROVISION OF MEDICINES TO THE POOR

Besides these services, every year on the 'Polio Day', the KKF provide

vaccination for prevention from Polio to the children and for this purpose, specialarrangements are made at the medical dispensary.

FREE LEGAL ASSISTANCETo provide legal assistance to those victims of State repression, who cannot afford it,the KKF, with the help of MQM, has set up a full-fledged section known as the "LegalAid Committee". Expert lawyers of this committee sit daily in the central officesituated near City Court, at Hoor Centre, Karachi and provide legal advice free of costto the needy. In fact, working with a humanitarian zeal these expert lawyers also actas counsels in the courts.

16/26

The network of the KKF ambulance service is expending throughout the country. Anycasualty or a patient from a poor family is provided free ambulance service.

KKF is also serving the people without any reward, through its Coffin Carrier Service.It initially began the coffin carrier service with two buses. Now the fleet has grown tofour. The KKF charges nominal rate from those who can afford, for its service, so that

the free of charge facility for the poor and destitute could be maintained. Along withthe coffin carrier service other facilities of bathing and providing the coffin for thedead is available free of cost at the Emergency Centre for the poor and destitute.

SERVICE TO THE POOR THROUGH MOBILE DISPENSARIES AND FIELDHOSPITALSBy providing free of cost medical care to the poor through its mobile dispensaries andfield hospitals, the KKF has added another achievement to its credit in its service tohumanity. Up till now, the KKF has served the poor through a number of its fieldhospitals and mobile dispensaries set up from time to time. In different areas of thecity, where the patients are not only examined and given free medicines worth

thousands of rupees, they are also operated upon if needed in emergency. Thesemobile dispensaries are not only organised in Karachi, Hyderabad or other areas ofSindh; but also in Punjab, Balochistan and the NWFP, where free medical treatmentand medicines are provided to those poor who otherwise have to suffer because of nonavailability of ordinary medicines in the government hospitals.

FRUITS AND VEGETABLE STALLSUnder the supervision of the KKF in various localities of the city, fruit and vegetablestalls are set up during Ramzan where Items are sold at cheaper rates. DuringRamazan, there is a tendency for increase in the prices of edible items. Contrary tothis, the KKF sells fruits and vegetables at more economic rates. This makes itpossible even for the poor to enjoy their Iftar, a service that has tremendous rewards.

Again as an NGO KKF was there to help theBalochistan people and established many camps in Balochistan while also formedcamps in different areas of Karachi to get the funds from the people.

HISTORICAL ACHEIVEMENTS

At various times in its service to humanity, the KKF has accomplished unprecedentedhistorical achievements. It is important to mention some of them here:

AID TO VICTIMS OF THE SADDAR BOMB BLASTSIn Karachi, during the year of 1987, there were tragic bomb blasts in the Saddar area,which caused several casualties including and many deaths. At the time of thistragedy, the KKF installed its medical aid camps outside Jinnah Hospital from wheremedicines, blood and all other necessary items were made available for the injuredwithout any discrimination. The relatives of the deceased were informed throughtelephone and telegram. Many injured victims were escorted to their home afternecessary medical aid. Through its actions the MQM has proved that it believes inproviding aid and assistance without discrimination.

HISTORICAL 'MUFT BAZAR' (FREE BAZAR)The holding of the unique and historical 'Muft Bazar' by the MQM's Khidmat-e-KhalqFoundation is a phenomenon, which has no parallel in the world, let alone Pakistan.This unique "Muft Bazar" took place on the 9th and 10th June 1989, at T-Ground,Federal B. Area, and Karachi. Through this Muft Bazar, more than a hundred thousandpoor and needy men and women were given goods worth more than two crore (twentymillion) rupees. The goods included stitched clothing, complete dowries for girls,groceries and items for every day use.

Through this 'Muft Bazar', similar to shops in markets, more than 100 stalls of eachitem were put up in the T-Ground. For distribution of aid a procedure was adopted

not only to help the destitute; but also at the same time extreme caution was madenot to hurt their self-respect and pride. Through this particular process, the poor andneedy proceeded to the stalls and acquired goods of their choice. During this 'MuftBazar' the MQM's Khidmat-e-Khalq Foundation members, regardless of their hunger,thirst and discomfort, worked tirelessly for two days to distribute aid among the poorand deprived. In the KKF's 'Muft Bazar' not only Mohajirs but also Sindhis, Baloch,Punjabis, Pakhtoons, Saraikis, Kashmiris and people from various nationalities wereprovided aid. Poor and needy widows, disabled, destitute and orphans were amongstthem. The elderly men and women were guided and aided by the MQM members ofNational Assembly, Provincial Assembly, Councillors, MQM office bearers andmembers. The Founder and Leader of the MQM, Mr. Altaf Hussain and members of thecentral committee supervised the aid distribution. Journalists, political, religious and

social leaders who witnessed the 'Muft Bazar' unanimously agreed on its being ahistorical event and a unique phenomenon in Pakistan.

RELIEF TO THE VICTIMS OF VARIOUS INCIDENTS IN KARACHIThere was a series of massacres and armed attacks on Mohajir localities in Karachibetween December 1986 and August 1987 including those in Aligarh Colony, QasbaColony, Orangi Town, Jalalabad, Nazimabad, Khawaja Ajmer Nagari, New Karachi andShah Faisal Colony. Terrorist gangs armed with the latest automatic firearms


18

subjected these places to large-scale murders and arson. This orgy of blood and firecontinued unabated and unchecked for hours at times. Innocent blood was shed andhundreds of houses were burnt. According to a conservative estimate, about 300persons were killed and many injured. It is a known fact that it was only the KKF thatcame to the aid of the wounded whom it took to different hospitals for first aid andnecessary medical treatment. The Committee also did everything possible to help and

rehabilitate those affected by these acts of terrorism.

HELP TO AFFECTED OF THE HYDERABAD FIRING TRAGEDYOn September 30, 1988, armed terrorists opened indiscriminate firing with automaticweapons on peaceful citizens in different parts of Hyderabad. This firing carried onfor over half an hour, resulting in the death of more than 200 innocent persons.Hundreds more were wounded severely. KKF came to the rescue of the wounded,shifted them to hospitals, and arranged large quantities of blood plasma for those whoneeded it, procured life-saving drugs and played an active role in other relatedactivities.

In July1990, Hyderabad was again a scene of carnage when several bomb blastsoccurred at different places. These blasts took several lives besides wounding a largenumber of people. In keeping with its tradition, the KKF rushed with its ambulances tothe aid of the wounded. It took them to hospitals and to the several field camps,which were set up for medical aid and assistance to the affected. It also distributedmedicines and other articles worth thousands of rupees amongst the helpless and thedeserving.

On July 26 & 27, 1990, one of the worst incident of indiscriminate firing by the Statemachinery against the innocent residents of Pacca Qila in Hyderabad, was witnessed.This calculated and unprovoked firing resulted in the death of hundreds of young mennot to mention dozens of women and innocent children. The number of the wounded

can only be imagined from that of the dead. As usual, the KKF rushed to help thevictims with blood plasma, medicines, food and temporary shelter. Besides this, theKKF also distributed a sum of Rs. 1.5 million amongst the people affected by the PuccaQila incident.

RELIEF FOR THE GHOTKI RAILWAY STA1TION VICTIMSIn 1991, on the tragic train accident at Ghotki Railway Station, in interior Sindh, theKKF performed distinctive relief activities to the victims. When the news of thistragedy at Ghotki Railway Station was given to the Founder Leader of the MQM, Mr.Altaf Hussain, he immediately gave instructions to provide urgent relief and help tothose affected by the tragedy. Within hours, a team of the KKF was the first to reachthe spot with its medical aid, paramedical staff, ambulances, life saving drugs, supply

of blood plasma and other necessary paraphernalia. It established its emergency aidcentre outside the local hospital. Ghotki, a small town in the interior of Sindh, lackseven the basic medical facilities. At Ghotki there was scarcity of doctors andmedicines. The doctors and the staff of the KKF, therefore, had to have a very busytime working round the clock and under severe conditions.

It undertook the formidable task of informing the next-of-kin of the victims of theaccident all over the country, and also arranged for the reception and temporary


19

boarding and lodging of their relations arriving in large numbers from all overPakistan. To make it easier for these visitors to identify their kin, the committeedisplayed photographs, where available, of the dead and the wounded. Those whowere severely wounded and could not be taken care of within the resources locallyavailable were shifted to Karachi in the KKF ambulances. The Committee within threedays spent almost Rs. 0.3 million in looking after those affected by the Ghotki

tragedy. Earlier, the KKF had also provided similar services without anydiscrimination, to the victims of the railway accident at Sangi.

HELP TO THE FLOOD AFFECTED AT MIRPURKHASThe unprecedented floods in Mirpurkhas in 1989 swept away several villages. Manypeople were drowned, many more injured and scores of families were renderedhomeless. The KKF raced to their rescue and also to those uprooted or separated fromtheir families. The Committee set up camps for the homeless, distributed medicinesand food amongst them until they found themselves rehabilitated elsewhere. Most ofthe families affected by the floods were Sindhis. KKF proved practically that itbelieves in serving all without any discrimination

REHABILITATION OF THE UPROOTED FAMILIESOwing to ethnic violence in Sindh in 1989, thousands of families migrated to Karachi orHyderabad from the interior of Sindh. The rehabilitation of these families, who hadleft their hearth and homes behind, was a challenging task. The KKF took up thechallenge. It found them temporary accommodation in schools and other places,offered them three meals a day, looked after their medical needs through medical aidcentres and provided them with the necessities of life. Besides, the committee spentabout Rs. 1 million on the uprooted families in 1991.

THE PHULELI CANAL TRAGEDY AND THE KKF's IMMEDIATE HELPOn 16 March 1992, 30 precious lives were lost and many persons were injured when an

overcrowded passenger bus on its way from Tando Ghulam Ali to Hyderabad fell intothe Phuleli Canal. MQM office bearers and volunteers of the KKF rushed to the spotwith their ambulances. They retrieved the ill-fated bus and the unlucky victims fromthe canal. Humanitarian activity lasted the whole night and the best part of thefollowing day. People belonging to all walks of life appreciated the services renderedby the KKF on the occasion.

A few days before the Phuleli Tragedy, dacoits had launched a rocket attack on aRawalpindi bound train from Karachi. KKF immediately provided medical help to thevictims at Nawabshah Railway Junction. For this it set up emergency camps atNawabshah where the doctors of the Medical Aid Committee gave first aid and othertreatment to the injured. KKF volunteers also contacted the relatives of the injured

throughout the country. KKF has proved its competency to rush to the aid of thoseaffected by any tragedy anywhere.

EARTHQUAKE IN AZAD KASHMIR

The biggest disaster in the history of Pakistan occurred in Azad Kashmir on 8th October,2005. Again KKF did the fantastic job over there and helped the victims, the campswere formed in PAF museum and all the people of Karachi gave their support and


20

8/7/2019 KKF

21/26

donate as much as they could. Due to the sincere efforts of KKF this year in electionKKF won the provincial assembly seat in Azad Kashmir.

KKF's SOURCE OF INCOME

KKF also meets all its expenses from donations received from people. The KKF obtainsdonations from the people in the month of Ramazan in the shape of Zakat, Fitra andSadqa; while it collects hides and skins of sacrificial animals on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha, the KKF distributes the funds so collected amongst the poor and needy peopleevery year in a public gathering. Besides, the cost of medical treatment andmedicines, ambulance and coffin carrier service, help centres and all other welfareactivities of the KKF are also financed from the contributions made by the people.KKF's Central Office at Block-14, Federal B. Area, maintains an up to date record ofdonations received from the public as well as the details of the expenditures onvarious items. KKF annually issues the statement of its income and expenditure for

the public information. Besides, the entire income and expenditure accounts areregularly audited. The MQM has extended general invitation to people to visit theCentral Office of KKF and check for themselves the accounts of KKF.

KKF is the organization of a political party which has many followers in Karachi. Nopolitical party beside MQM wins election in Karachi this shows the popularity of MQM inKarachi. Therefore the workers of MQM and other people belongs to this party donatestheir Zakat and Sadqa to KKF. Many business men also donate to KKF.

People actually get inspired by the work of KKF and due to which they donate for theKKF. In September 1997, Sheikh Nasir Lotha of United Arab Emirates and the ConsulateGeneral of UAE Sheikh Zahi Lotha visited the KKF Centre and saw the ambulance

service, coffin carrier service, dispensary and other departments of KKF. They werealso shown the aid programs of the KKF. Sheikh Nasir Lotha accepted that Khidmat-e-Khalq Foundation is really providing service to the poor and needy persons without anydiscrimination.

KKF's ALLOCATION OF FUNDS

The KKF allocate entire funds collected from donation to poor and needy. We havediscussed the historical achievements of KKF, also the objective of KKF. The funds areallocated basically to the people who are suffering as we have discussed the services

rendered by the KKF which shows the areas where KKF allocate their funds. The KKFhave now some future plans in which the KKF will start some different programs andwill try to cover entire Pakistan.

FUTURE WELFARE PROGRAMMES

KKF intends to broaden the sphere of its welfare services in the future and has

accordingly formulated several new schemes for providing better and effectivewelfare services to the poor and needy people.

ESTABLISHMENT OF 260 BED MODERN HOSPITALA 260 bed modern hospital tops the list of the future welfare schemes of the KKF. Thismodern hospital will be established over an area of 3 acres in Block 14, of the FederalB Area. This hospital will comprise full range of medical departments and providetreatment to all kinds of patients. In this hospital of KKF, free treatment will beextended to all poor and deserving people and, in addition they would also beprovided with free medicines.

ESTABLISHMENT OF DISPENSARIES

At present there is a dispensary working at the KKF Centre; but the KKF wants toestablish dispensaries all over the city on a large scale. In these dispensaries the poor,helpless and deserving patients will be provided with free of cost treatment andmedicines. With the establishment of these dispensaries, people, especially thoseliving in the underdeveloped areas, will have access to better medical treatment andfacilities in the vicinity of their homes. In the next phase KKF plans to establish thesefree dispensaries in different cities of Sindh province and also in the province ofPunjab, the NWFP and Balochistan.

ESTABLISHMENT OF BLOOD BANKBlood is a necessary element of life and at the time of any accident it is needed tosave the lives of the victims. MQM felt this need and planned to establish a blood

bank in the city. The construction of the building of Blood Bank was completed in1991. All the departments were made but due to the shortage of funds, necessarymachinery for the Blood Bank could not be acquired, therefore, this project could notbe started. Afterwards, due the commencement of the Operation Clean-up, all theplans to open the Blood Bank were delayed. Now owing to the efforts of the MQM andthe support of generous people this Blood Bank is now operative but still more fundsare needed to run this Blood Bank on a wider scale.

ESTABLISHMENT OF DRUG BANKIn order to provide free medicine to the poor and destitute, the KKF wants to establisha drug bank. Currently, there is a small drug bank operative in the dispensary of theKKF but it wants to establish a big drug bank so that the poor and needy could be

provided easy access to every medicine, including life saving drugs.

ESTABLISHMENT OF AMBULANCE AND COFFIN CARRIES SERVICE CENTRES ALL OVERTHE CITYKKF will set up ambulance and Coffin Carrier Service centres in the far-flung areas ofKarachi along with other urban areas to provide ready and quick services to thepeople. According to this plan in 1991, the KKF started an Ambulance Centre inLandhi but it remained operative for a small period when in 1992 an Operation Clean-


22

8/7/2019 KKF

23/26

up was launched against the MQM and the Haqiqi terrorists captured all theambulances present there and closed this ambulance centre. Despite this incident,KKF is still struggling to establish ambulance and coffin carrier service centres inKarachi and other parts of the country.

ESTABLISHMENT OF INDUSTRIAL HOMES

KKF in addition to providing help to the people, specially the poor and needy ones,through its various welfare schemes and assistance programmes as well as extendingmedical and other facilities, is also keen to promoting general progress and prosperityin the society. To attain this goal, the KKF has formulated a scheme for setting upIndustrial Home centres in different parts of the city. In these centres, womenespecially the needy and deserving ones will be trained in different skills and trades tomake them economically independent and bread earners of their family.
