Village People are on the Road for Food and Shelter


CMC village people have given a written request to local government after receiving "NO RESPONSE" of assistance for three days (02/01/2012). The community blocked the road more than one and half hours in an effort to receive safe water, food and shelter. They blocked the road from CMC Village, Pondicerry to Chennai Highway (East Coast Road). After huge traffic at the highway, the Local Administration officer, Block Development office and Police came and said that they will try to assess the village and make decisions for relief and rehabilitation. 

All the village women, men and children took part in this "ROAD BLOCK". TYCL and MUGHIL Social Welfare Organization young adults are trying to provide safe drinking water and food to needy people and children at the village.

    Way to go to get some action! I wish people had thought to do something like this with Hurricane Katrina - there might have been less loss of life.

    I look forward to hearing more about the relief effort!
