My driver who belongs to Madhepura has come back today after putting his family in relief camp. The description that he has given is heart rendering to say the least ......... I'm not getting adequate adjectives to describe it. There have been thousands and thousands of of deaths. The stench of dead bodies is so overpowering that you cannot pass on without stuffing your nose. The relief material is being pilferaged by Mukhias. Food grains, provisions and clothes, everything is finding way to Mukhiyas' houses and situation is riotous. And the most scandelising of all - The army is a terror. It is molesting women and girls everywhere. In fact, the boats that have capsized were due to the molestation attempts by army men. No one with a family wants to board an army boat. Those who are desparate to cross and are taking army boats have to pay through nose to get ferried across - Rs.500-1000. Nothing is being reported by media for fear of riots.In fact a saw a news item hailing the role of army in national mewspapers.. ...The situation in Govt. run camps is ok but there is shortage of food because of siphoning off everything by powerful people. And now that the water has receded, those with money and muscle power are hiring boats to loot the abandoned houses. Nitish Kumar is asking people not to leave the relief camps, but how can they continue in the camps when whatever little they are left with is being looted by people turned bandits..... .I'm really torn apart by this first hand account. I'm not sure whether the relief material we've sent across has gone to needy people. I'm not sure of anything ....... Kiska vishwas karen.Can our friends in media highlight this? Can we do something about it? What have we done to deserve this catastrophe? Anubha
