CASA UNDERTAKES IMMEDIATE RELIEF MEASURES FOR CYCLONE AILA VICTIMS

On Tuesday- 26th May, 2009, Cyclone “AILA” with the wind speed upto 100 kph wreaked Kolkata and Southern parts of West Bengal (Howrah, Vardhman and 24 Paraganas districts particularly) and some other neighboring places too. Over 60 people have been killed and thousands rendered homeless following this wrath of nature in form of Cyclone AILA as per reports received so far.


CASA has already pressed its work force into action to do the first-hand damage assessment. Also, CASA is in touch with its partner organisations in West Bengal and formulating strategies to provide immediate relief to the people affected by Cyclone AILA in Kolkata and other parts of the State.

Further details on CASA’s intervention towards the present and proposed relief/ rehabilitation measures for the Cyclone AILA victims will be posted on CASA’s website shortly.
