Nagaland Flood Relief

The central government on Monday approved Rs 1,816.162 crore of additional central assistance to Assam, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Meghalaya and Nagaland as they faced natural disasters like floods, landslides and cloudburst in 2022.

Kerala, which was hit by massive floods in August, will be given Rs 3,048 crore as an additional assistance from the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF), officials said. Besides, Rs. 539 crore will be given to cyclone-hit Andhra Pradesh and Rs. 131 crore to Nagaland, which was also hit by floods.

Flood-hit Nagaland is yet to receive any relief from the Centre or other state governments, the Assembly was informed on Tuesday. Donations received from individuals and NGOs under the Chief Minister's Relief Fund stand at Rs 4.69 crore, Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio said.

The government is sending a team of ministers to Nagaland today after Chief Minister Niephiu Rio took to social media last week urging the nation for help to rebuild the damaged infrastructure due to floods, heavy rain and landslides last month. Twelve people have reportedly died and over 3,000 families have been displaced.

According to official figures, the Nagaland floods have already killed 12 people and displaced thousands in one month.

The Government of Nagaland has contributed Rs 10 lakh to the Prime Minister's National Relief Fund (PMNRF) for flood relief in Jammu and Kashmir, said an official of the Home Department, Nagaland State Disaster Management Authority today.
