Kerala flood updates: Lakhs people moved camps

No electricity, no mat to sleep on people at a relief camp in rural Ernakulum say their living condition is difficult indeed. The camp at Aluva’s UC College is just one of the 3,000 across Kerala where more than 6 lakh people have found shelter.

Many of them have lost their homes in the worst monsoon in a century that has been at its most furious since August 8. At this relief camp we have water. Once we reach home, we won’t have any water to drink.

Home Minister of Telangana Naini Narshimha Reddy has said 50 RO machines worth Rs. 2.5 crore will be airlifted from Telangana’s Begumpet to Kerala shortly to provide clean drinking water.
