Sir,
Refer news item, ‘NC demands special package for flood affected areas’ DE Aug 19.
The recent rains and floods have caused havoc in the Jammu region. Many people lost their lives. Some lost their houses, cattle and land. Large swathes of land got washed away causing great loss to people.
Therefore, it becomes duty of the Government to come to their rescue at this crucial stage of life. Besides, it is quite necessary that damage to infrastructure be also taken into account. At some places, power supply has been stopped as electric poles either got washed away or got uprooted. Roads too got badly damaged.
The Government is therefore urged to frame a special package for these affected people so that they can start their normal life once again.
Yours etc…..
