Dear friends,
As all of us know that our southern sister-state is suffering from the havoc of severe and sudden floods for the last more than a month and the accompanying fury of devastation, loss of human life, property, and animals to the tune of more than 20,000 crores rupees. It may take a decade or so to bring the disrupted lives to rails after such an enormous loss of life and property.
The Center has sanctioned a measly amount of six hundred crores only, which is not only insulting but humiliating too. All the other states have come up with their bit to support and rebuild the tattered economy.
There is a simple question? God forbids if Gujrat had suffered such a calamity, would the response of Center be the same? Kerala may be ruled by a different political entity, it is still a vibrant state of India contributing handsomely to national development. So It is now our duty to contribute our bit through various agencies to help the unfortunate suffering people there. If every citizen contributes just rupee one towards these efforts, more than one billion can be made available to the state for the damaged roads, buildings and bridges can be rebuilt.
Our heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved and their relations.
