kerala floods

Winning hearts on social media, this poignant Facebook post highlights how Odisha went out of its way to help Kerala despite suffering losses of its own.

Facing a nearly impossible task, Krishna Teja and Dr Isaac had to deploy forces that could reach every locality and every house in the region and convince people to evacuate.

The family had bought the land a years ago with Kanagamma's retirement money and had pledged Ezhilarasi's jewellery as well.

Now that the state begins to rebuild itself, we need to shift our focus. But how? What does Kerala need next?

As the Kerala floods subside, people are slowly trying to put their lives back together.

While the northern band recorded a maximum of 14 inches of rainfall in the week between 13 and 20 August 2018, Kerala received between 10 to 18 inches of rainfall.

"Now, when the losses are counted and the process of rebuilding starts, this sense of brotherhood offers us hope that we will get through these dark days and come out in a better tomorrow."

Kerala is slowly rebuilding itself after the floods, and various companies have decided to pitch in.

Working round-the-clock with IPS officers, Harikishore successfully accomplished this seemingly impossible mission. Here is the entire account of the IAS officer, as shared on Facebook.

IAS officers TV Anupama and K Vasuki have led initiatives to do everything in their power and beyond, to ensure the people of their respective districts are safe, healthy and happy.
