Dear Comrades,

Kerala is now limping back to normalcy after the havoc. I am also free from work connected with relief activities.

As you know, our CHQ had given a call for liberal donation. Many comrades have sent money to the bank account of our Kerala Circle Unit. But, the Vijayabank is not able to give all details and hence we are unable to identify all donors. The internet was not working properly these days. That affected the bank’s network and my internet too. Within one or two days we may be able to collect some more information from the Bank. Still, names of all donors may not be available.

As on 20-8-2018, I have information, through whatsapp, that following donations have been sent to Kerala Circle Assn. (Donations sent by District Units in Kerala are not included in the list.) I request all those who transferred donation amount online to check and intimate if there is any omission so that we can cross check with the remittances accounted by the Bank. The List is attached hereunder…. PSR

RUSH YOUR DONATIONS TO KERALA

Dear Comrades,

All of you are aware of the serious situation in Kerala after the torrential rains and floods. Thousands of people are in Relief Camps now. They lost their houses, materials, cattles and livelihood. It will take months together to restore normal life in villages. Kerala government has exhibited commendable efficient crisis management in the situation.But that is not enough. All of us should contribute to the Relief work as we had done at the time of Floods in Chennai. Our Kerala circle unit has decided to donate Rupees ONE LAKH to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund. Our Units in other circles also should extend maximum help at this time of unprecedented distress faced by people of Kerala. Hence, CHQ calls upon all to send donation to our Kerala Circle Association. It should be done immediately, as quickly as possible. Bank particulars of Kerala Association are given below:

Bank: VIJAYA BANK

Branch:Ernakulam M G Road

Account No: 202201011000787
