On 19 August 2018, a relief-team consisting of monastics, staff, and students of Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya, Coimbatore, visited flood affected interior villages of Pallakkad district, Kerala, and distributed plastic mats and blankets to the needy in various relief camps. Apart from food and drinking water, blankets and mats were very much in need for the flood affected families, whose most bedding materials were wet and unusable.
