₹1,066 Crore Lifeline for Flood-Hit States in India
Communities across six states in India are receiving much-needed support after enduring the devastating impact of recent floods and landslides. The central government has stepped in with substantial financial aid, approving ₹1,066.80 crore in relief funds.
Relief Package Targets Worst-Affected Regions
This critical financial assistance, channeled through the State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF), is earmarked for Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Kerala, and Uttarakhand. These states have been grappling with the aftermath of severe flooding and landslides, which have caused widespread damage and displacement.
SDRF Funds to Bolster Recovery Efforts
The SDRF is a crucial resource for states dealing with natural calamities. These funds will be instrumental in supporting rescue operations, providing essential supplies to affected populations, and rebuilding damaged infrastructure. The allocation reflects the central government’s commitment to assisting communities as they navigate the difficult road to recovery.
