The Nilgris Disaster

Nilgris In Tamilnadu, India, had been subjected to heavy rains.
The district is isolated .
Roads have been extensively damaged.
Land slips, and incessant rain have caused a riotous disaster.
The heavy rains in Ketti, 10kms from Ooty has defaced the lovely valley.
A family of 7 was buried in the debris.
Most of the houses in this area are in tattered condition.
They look as though they would crash land any moment.
Nearly 42 people have been killed.
The approximate loss is about Rs 300 crores.
600 people have been evacuated from vulnerable spots.


The beautiful district is in the grips of Nature.
Nature too gets angry at times.
It is hard to believe.
Men are prone to moods.
Nature too experiences such variants.
The anger has turned violent.
The violence has implicated destruction.
Destruction has grabbed lives.


To restore normalcy, a liberal aid is expected.
The central government has to arrange for this unexpected disapproval.
A month back, Karnataka and Andhra had a terribly bad trial .
The two states were battered by rain and flood.
Many hundreds lost their lives.
The Chief Ministers have demanded a wholesome amount as aid to renew the lost vigour of the districts.
Even after such copious rainfall, in summer , Taminadu will face water shortages.
The thought to save water has been ignored.
The way to conserve water have not been considered.
Is it due to ignorance or indiffernce?

The lovely Nilgris , with a retiniue of tea plantations, colonial houses, fine schools, and with the resource of high quality natural vegetation and best pictorial splendour ,has been smudged by unprecedented rain.
