This week end last for us to gather flood relief

Jaya Jagannath,                                                Attachment : An Analysis of Why it Floods in Orissa every year

A Good News : Indian Railway declares free transportation for RELIEF materials. Details

We are leaving on Monday night with your relief materials, contributions, wishes and sympathy messages to convey the flood effected people in Orissa who lost their everything. We request everyone to please contribute whatever possible towards flood relief. In Orissa the flood Situation has become worst now. River Mahanadi has breached at 143 places swallowing 40 lakh people in about 6,000 villages from 18 districts. Only 3.77 Lakh people could be evacuated leaving 60 dead and thousands still swept away along with the river water. The survivors will have to still roll thru the jaws of death, the epidemic diseases that will come. That’s more dangerous than flood.

Let’s do the following things. We request everyone to actively participate in flood relief campaign during this week end.

1. Do any one among the readers have contact with Bank officials of CITI Bank, SBI, HDFC, ING Vaisya, ICICI, UTI etc. If so then we can approach them and request to do the needful for a “Orissa Flood Relief online donation” pop up page to place along with the log in page.

2. Relief collection centers have been identified at Sri. Jagannath Temple, HSR Lay out, Vishal Hotel – Munekolala Marathahalli, Sri Jagannath Hotel – Kundanahalli AECS Layout, Deepa Nursing home – Marathahalli, KIIt Campus - Koramangala. Please donate your Old clothes, bed sheets, Mosquito nets, Blankets. Please put them in a polythene cover along with a small sympathy note on paper. Please call any one of the volunteers before coming to drop your relief at the designated places. We are desperately looking for brothers and sisters from all over Bangalore to join us during this week end for this drive. Please spend your week end for the highest cause of service to humanity.

3. Please donate monetarily for buying medicines and antibiotics for the people to fight against epidemic deseases. please reply us if you wish to pay something. we will arrange for collections. Upon collecting, you need to send a mail to helporissatoday@gmail.com CCing the email Id of the volunteer whom you paid. Please mention the amount you contributed with date. This will help us track the revenue flow.

4. Can we contribute a pinch of our salary of just one day at least towards this. Believe me, your one day salary will add life to many people over there. Let’s snatch back the victims from the jaws of death.

5. During week end we have decided to have a massive door to door campaign to collect relief materials. With just a simple printed note in hand briefing about the grim situation at Orissa, we will ask for whatever people can give. In apartments we will ask the security to call one of the association members, request him to accompany us flat to flat. With printed paper in hand written in English and Hindi we will explain in brief the situation in Orissa and then we will ask for contribution.

Amazingly every year in Orissa it floods where as at the same time in AP it droughts. Two big faults made by Governments in past is now causing this havoc to all. 

Fault 1 : Plan for triple dam on Mahanadi was rejected by Government : Detailed

Fault 2 : National River linking project was rejected by Central Govt. Detailed

A master plan called “Ganga Kaveri Project - The Garland Canal “ proposed by Dr.K.L.Rao suggested to to vision to link all the rivers in India from Brahmaputra, Ganga, to Narmada, Tapthi to Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna, Penna to Kaveri. This will effectively circulate the waters in our land to every nook and corner eliminating the petty squabbles amongst us. This will be comprising of two Broad sections The Peninsular Component : 16 links and The Himalayan Component : 14 links.

An humble request: Kindly forward the enclosed mail CCing us to all corporates, friends, collegaues, group ids, all social and regional Organizations.
