Dear friends,
It reminds me of DIVISEEMA which was washed away in Cyclone in Nov 1977 with 20000 deaths none survived. Brave Students served.

We have a situation of dire crises unfolding in Chennai. We have hundreds of thousands of climate refugees taking shelter in schools, malls, Theatres, marriage halls and religious establishments. There are tens of thousands more who need to be rescued. These people need food, clothes, sanitation facilities and medicines. There is flooding all over the city -- the water isn't just rain water, it is rain water mixed with sewage. We are at the brink of a disease breakout.
Many Brave young people participated in rescue operations and "large scale Cooking and distributed food packets for 3 days.
No one imagined that this could happen to Chennai. We were just a happy little town content with our Bhakti,Devotion and Coffee.
But humanity has won over once again. Caste, creed, religion and social background have become immaterial. Who said we are an intolerant society? Look at Chennai, the collective good is the only th
