Cyclone in Tamil Nadu

I just received from M Govindaraju this information :
"... the cyclone depression and cyclonic wind coupled with heavy rains affect the entire coastal districts especially tsunami region.The houses constructed by SEVAI for tsunami victims are safe.The neighbourhoods dalit homes are surrounded by floods.There is a cyclonic effect in Tamilnadu and I herein attach a few press clippings of the Poompuhar coast heavy rains with wind, and also Trichy region,which is under floods,houses damaged.


SEVAI team sets it up a Community kitchen in Thirnagari Dispensary area in the coast and Allur in Trichy and feed around the flood victims especially old, and pregnant women and children and undertake basic firstaid for them.We could not do anything more than this for want of funds.


The Trichy area is also facing severe rainfall and the low-lying areas are affected by floods,we had also started a community kitchen in Allur for elderly people those who live in and around Allur low-lying areas.The roads leading to Trichy from neighbouring towns were cut-off.The Amour and other SEVAI centres are safe till this morning without flood damage,but all schools have been closed for the fifth day.This is for your kind information.
Yours sincerely,
K.Govindaraju.
SEVAI.
