Provide relief to affected people

Sir,
Refer news item, “Rain, floods paralyse life” DE Aug 10.
In the wake of recent heavy rains, considerable loss of property has been reported from various parts of the State. Many bridges and roads have been washed away in floods. This in turn has snapped communication links between the affected villages and other parts of the country. Besides, many people have lost their houses in these rains. At places, electricity poles have fallen  enveloping people in darkness. The situation therefore demands that the Government agencies be set in motion to provide succour to the victims. The people in remote areas usually go unheard. It takes a lot of time to wake up to their miseries. During this time they encounter many  problems.
The Government should set up a committee which supervises the relief work on a war footing basis.
Yours etc…
