Emergency flood relief, South Nepal...

We went early in the morning to search the affected flood area. We had also Co-Ordination by Phone with AMDA staff especially with team leader Mr. Niraula. We observed two areas where people were staying in the school leaving house because of flood.

We went each House and met with each people from the morning but AMDA group was not visited yet. So we went to search more 15 KM far area almost near border but most people were unmanageable. They had House, Animal, Food, medicine and Animal crops problems. I went each House to get data. When we came back from the border the Health camp was running in the School. I met with Mr. Niraula and introduce my team and local political leader to support him in any problem. It was very big crowd in the Health camp. It was difficult to handle staff alone. So we made plan tomorrow to appoint local volunteer to control and deal with people. We went for lunch around 3 PM but before lunch went to meet with local police officer to get actual victim and needy people's data although we were also collecting data individually. We found 160 House are almost victimized in our first observation area and near health camp area 150 House were affected.

Tomorrow we and AMDA is going to distribute ration and some cloth from our side and only cloth from AMDA side together. I have chosen spot for distribution in the police office in front of 8 political parties and social worker. We observed that we can not distribute out side because people can create trouble to us. We should put police for our security which is obviously known to Mr. Niraula [AMDA leader] looking people's attitude today in the health camp.

Goodbye. Thank You.
