Can the rehabilitation package of 1,000 crore be enough?
Kashmir Times. Dated: 5/27/2020 1:00:32 AM
Dear Editor,
It is a praiseworthy that the prime minister modi announced assistance of 1000 crores for West Bengal, after an aerial survey of terrible ruin coused by the cyclone amphan, so that the state government doesn't face major difficulties in these hours of crisis. Following the announcement, 2 lakhs will be given to the family of deceased and 50,000 each for the seriously injured. According to the disaster management team, the number of fatalities crossed 80 on Friday. The death toll from the cyclone may increase,because many storm affected areas are still inaccessible.
So I humbaly request both the centre and the state governments, to conduct a detailed information of the flood hit areas as soon as possible and provide a more extensive aid package to the troubled and helpless people.
