AGARTALA, Aug 20 (TIWN): Govt of Tripura has announced Rs. 1 crore for Kerala flood victims on Monday.
In a cabinet meeting Govt of Tripura has decided this.
On yesterday opposition CPI-M had demanded aid for Kerala from State Govt of Tripura.
It can be noted here, as rescue operations in Kerala on Monday entered its final stages, the biggest challenge before the authorities in the flood aftermath turned into managing the over 5,500 relief camps housing more than 7,00,000 people across the state.
The weather looked promising with no major rainfall expected in the state. Many people though continued to wait for rescue to arrive in several parts of Ernakulam district and interior Chengannur in Alappuzha district.
The death toll stands at 370, from May 29 when Kerala got the first of the monsoon rains, with the bulk of the fatalities being reported after August 9.
