Dear Friends,
You are all aware of the dreadful disaster occurred in Wayanad district, Kerala on 30-7-2024. The landslides and flash floods that swept through have devastated a part of the district, causing unprecedented deaths and destruction. Over 300 people are dead and many more are missing. Entire villages, houses, schools buildings, roads and bridges have been obliterated. But the tragedy at Wayanad is bigger than the sum total of the dead and missing people and the devastation. It was a tsunami in the hills which, in a few hours, turned a tourist paradise into a graveyard.
Army, Air force, Navy, NDRF and thousands of volunteers are working day and night to rescue people in distress. Clothes and materials are flowing from nearby Calicut and Malappuram districts to the disaster land. Religion or Politics is not a barrier for relief work. People stood together to face the calamity. More than 8000 people are in Relief Camps. More than 450 injured are being treated in hospitals.
Rehabilitation of the survivors is the urgent need. It is very costly. We members of AIBSNLPWA all over India must rise to the occasion, keeping our tradition. CHQ of AIBSNLPWA has sent a sum of Rs. One lakh to the Kerala Chief Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund as token of our commitment. CHQ calls upon our members to donate liberally to the Kerala CMDRF through your respective District Association.
Please hand over or transfer your donation to your District Unit. The District Unit should remit entire amount so received to Kerala CMDRF with due intimation to CHQ Treasurer and respective Circle Secretary. It is urgent. Hence, please complete the task by 15th August 2024.
With greetings,
1st August 2024 V Varaprasad, General Secretary.
