#CycloneFengal has wreaked unprecedented havoc across 14 districts of Tamil Nadu, affecting 1.5 crore people, inundating 2.11 lakh hectares of farmland, and damaging critical infrastructure.
Given the magnitude of destruction, I urge Hon'ble @PMOIndia Thiru. @NarendraModi to release ₹2000 crore from the NDRF immediately to aid emergency restoration and rehabilitation efforts.
தமிழ்நாட்டின் 14 மாவட்டங்களை இதுவரை கண்டிராத அளவில் #CycloneFengal சூறையாடியுள்ளது. இதனால் 1.5 கோடி மக்கள் பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளனர், 2.11 இலட்சம் ஹெக்டேர் வேளாண் நிலங்கள் வெள்ளத்தில் மூழ்கியுள்ளன, முக்கிய உட்கட்டமைப்புகள் சேதமடைந்துள்ளன.
சேதத்தின் வீரியத்தைக் கருத்தில் கொண்டு, #NDRF-இல் இருந்து உடனடியாக 2000 கோடி ரூபாயை அவசர மீட்பு மற்றும் புனரமைப்பு நடவடிக்கைகளுக்காக விடுவிக்குமாறு மாண்புமிகு பிரதமர் திரு. நரேந்திர மோடி அவர்களைக் கேட்டுக்கொள்கிறேன்.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin issued a pressing appeal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requesting the urgent release of 2,000 crore rupees from the National Disaster Response Fund to support emergency restoration and community rehabilitation operations following the devastating impact of Cyclone Fengal. Stalin stated that the severe cyclonic storm unleashed unprecedented havoc across 14 districts of the state, directly affecting more than 1.5 crore citizens and submerging 2.11 lakh hectares of fertile agricultural land.
The Chief Minister stressed that the sheer magnitude of infrastructural damage, encompassing washed-out rural roads, breached irrigation channels, collapsed electric transmission towers, and inundated residential clusters, requires immediate and substantial financial intervention from the Union government. He emphasized that local disaster response teams, armed forces personnel, and municipal workers have been working tirelessly on the ground to rescue stranded residents and restore essential basic utilities.
Stalin urged the central administration to rise above bureaucratic procedures and provide immediate financial support commensurate with the catastrophic scale of the calamity. He reaffirmed his administration's determination to rebuild impacted regions swiftly, ensuring that affected farming families and rural artisans receive holistic state assistance.
