Amid fears of an epidemic looming large in the flood hit Kashmir valley in India, heads and representatives of around 20 Riyadh-based Indian organizations collectively urged Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a massive response to the unprecedented disaster in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K).
Appreciating the job done by the defense forces for the ongoing rescue and relief operation, the representatives of Indian organizations called upon the government to further intensify the massive rescue and relief operation in order to minimize death and destruction in the stricken valley.
“We appreciate that the government has stepped up efforts with the prime minister announcing aid from the PM relief fund for the ravaged state, but with the floods claiming the lives of hundreds of people and leaving many marooned, the death and
destruction in the flood-hit state can only be minimized by intensifying rescue operations in the same manner it was carried out by the defense forces during the Uttarakhand landslide earlier this year,” they said.
Stressing on the enormity of the efforts to bring back the summer capital Srinagar and other badly affected areas to normalcy, they reiterated for a humongous relief effort to bring succor to the affected people.
The meeting was organized by Aligarh Muslim University Alumni Association (AMUOBA), Riyadh.
Mohammad Ahmad Badshah, AMUOBA president welcomed the attendees to the meeting and made a power point presentation for a pictographic assessment of the ground zero and deteriorating living conditions of the people in Jammu and Kashmir.

Charitable Foundation of India), Shameem Khan (Deccan Cultural Society), Abdul Ahad Siddiqui (Indian National Foundation), Misbahul Aarfeen (Association of Indian reserachers and scientist), Obaidur Rahman (Bihar Foundation), Obaid Siddiqui (Jamia Millia Islamia
