Kalady
Kalady: Incessant rains and flooding of the Purna (Periyar) river has wreaked havoc in the Ernakulam district. Flood waters had entered our Kalady Ashrama premises and some portions of it were under 3 feet of water. The situation turned further grave owing to lack of electricity and connectivity. The local authorities made the Ashrama’s school a local relief camp and more than 1800 local people were provided food and shelter in it for a few days. The centre provided milk to small children and medical aid to patients at the camp. The centre has so far distributed relief kits containing rice, lentils, oil, salt, spices, tea, sugar, jugs, mugs, bedsheets, towels, blankets, mats, tooth brush, sanitary items, etc. among 2800 affected families in Kaipattoor area.
