The Chief Minister, who stayed at state secretariat Nabanna overnight to personally monitor the flood situation, handed over relief package to flood and storm-affected people who had taken shelter in the school. Besides flood, the area was hit by a major storm last week in which many houses were damaged.
Without naming the Centre, she said she would not beg to anyone for money for the disaster-affected people.
The state government will help those people who lost their houses and crops in storm and flood, Banerjee said adding BDOs and SDOs were asked to prepare a list of such victims. There should not be any politics in distribution of relief she said and sought cooperation from everyone in this regard.
