During inspection of the flood relief centres, the CM also inquired about the facility of medical camp, shelter for the flood-affected pregnant women, alternate arrangement for children going to Anganwari centres, Covid-19 test, Covid-19 vaccination, free medicine distribution, shelter for livestock and necessary arrangements at the community kitchen being run for the flood-hit families. PATNA: Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar on Wednesday conducted an aerial survey of flood-affected areas in Katihar and Purnia districts. Accompanied by deputy chief minister Tarkishore Prasad, he also inspected arrangements at two flood relief centres – first at the B M College ground, Laxmipur, under Barari block of Katihar district, while the second at the Buniyadi high school, Sapha, under Rupauli block of Purnia district. During inspection of the flood relief centres, the CM also inquired about the facility of medical camp, shelter for the flood affected pregnant women, alternate arrangement for children going to Anganwari centres, Covid-19 test, Covid-19 vaccination, free medicine distribution, shelter for livestock and necessary arrangements at the community kitchen being run for the flood-hit families. During the inspection, Nitish asked Katihar DM Udayan Mishra to conduct Covid-19 test on all the people staying at the flood relief camp, and keep all those persons in isolation who would be found covid positive in the test report. On his return to the state capital, Nitish said, “Today, I conducted an aerial survey of entire flood-affected areas in Katihar and Purnia district. I also met people at two places and took their views. I also inspected whatever arrangements have been made at the flood relief centres.” “There has been a sharp rise in the water-level of Ganga this year. The flood waters have caused huge damages at several places in the two districts,” Nitish told reporters while coming out of Patna airport, this evening. On being asked whether he would seek financial help from the Centre against the damages caused by the floods, Nitish said the state government always makes such demands from the Centre. He also said the state government has made a policy since 2007 on how to provide relief to the flood-affected families. “We keep improving our policy every year and provide necessary assistance to each and every flood-affected people. We also made necessary arrangements for livestock,” Nitish said. Source link Read the full article
