GENEVA: A “perfect storm” of overlapping crises forced tens of millions to flee within their own country last year, sending the number of internally displaced people to a record high, monitors said on Thursday. An unprecedented 71.1 million internally displaced people (IDPs) were registered in 2022 — up 20 percent from a year earlier — amid mass displacement from Russia’s war in Ukraine, as well as by the monsoon floods that drenched Pakistan. Beyond the 17 million displacements inside Ukraine last year, eight million were forced from their homes by Pakistan’s monster floods. More than 700,000 people have already become internally displaced by the fighting that erupted on April 15, while another 150,000 people have fled the country, according to UN numbers. “The war in Ukraine also fuelled a global food security crisis that hit the internally displaced hardest,” he said.

In the history of nations, the rise and fall has always been a mystery and historians have thought a lot on: why does a nation develop? Change is a necessary factor for any state or society to develop because no system has the capacity to solve all human problems for all times to come. Another important reason one was the Black Death, which wiped out half of European population. The entire history of mankind is witness to the fact that the nations that become stagnant lose their existence. The important reason why our country is failing today is that we are determined to run our country on centuries-old thinking and methods.
