Tripura Pradesh Congress president Asish Kumar Saha on Saturday wrote to the Governor Indrasena Reddy Nallu urging him to direct the appropriate authority and to send an all-party delegation to the Central government for briefing the magnitude of the natural disaster (flood) and seek sufficient assistance to manage relief for the victims.

In his letter addressed to the Tripura Governor, Saha wrote, “The recent floods in Tripura have left a trail of destruction, affecting lakhs of residents. Heavy monsoon rains have caused rivers to overflow, submerging vast areas and significantly losing property and livelihoods. Thousands of people have been rendered homeless and about 26 people died in the unprecedented deluge”.

“Flood water overflowed the agricultural paddy fields and pisciculture ponds thereby completely washing away fish from ponds. Many people who maintained their livelihood upon livestock rearing like cattle, goat, piggery, duckling, chicks and poultry farming, had a bolt from the blue. They witnessed helplessly how their economy and financial sustenance ruined before them as all were drowned in the flood water. In many areas mud walls of dwelling houses collapsed. The relentless downpour has also triggered landslides, further exacerbating the crisis. Public buildings, including schools and hospitals have been inundated, hampering relief and rescue operations”, it read.

Mentioning the fate of homeless people who have taken refuge in relief camps, the TPCC president wrote, “Lack of clean drinking water and proper sanitation facilities is posing a serious health risk. with the potential for water borne diseases to spread rapidly. The immediate need for food. clothing and medical aid is critical”.

Assuring full co-operation on behalf of the Congress party, Asish Kumar Saha urged the Governor to take necessary steps and ensure adequate compensation to the affected families.

He also requested the Governor to direct the concerned authority to constitute all party committees at Assembly Constituency, Sub-Division, District and State level headed by government officials to monitor and be the watch dogs of the people.
