Dear Soeb, Govind and other members,
Read all the exchanges. I have felt this too - we are unable to rise up to and act. I still don't understand why we all need to meet and plan - all this is being done here I mean online.
Soeb, am sure u will be happy to hear that I got around 40 volunteers to help in the distribution of relief material for the Flood affected victims. Its a dismal sight - similar to the Tsunami incident - where all kinds of people ready to go and get that Rs. 2000, a sari, dhoti, 10 kg rice and kerosene. Its really so painful when u see people who are passer bys come and fight to what they claim shamelessly as theirs.
We did the best we can, and I have approached many corporates to help me in this effort and we are doing our little bit sensitising the people not to be greedy and that those who have the tokens will be give the materials and helping those without the tokens in obtaining one. With people shouting and fighting and jumping the queque its a real ordeal and I feel that more and more of us out there can bring about some semblance of normalcy. At such times u can see the worst in human nature and also the best when people u have never ever seen or known come and do their little bit and fade away without waiting for even a thanks.
