JINJA- A cashier attached to OBK Rice Millers in Jinja
Town, has been shot dead by robbers.
Kaweesi Bin Sali was shot at about 7:00pm on
Wednesday by armed men who stormed the rice mill premises, according to Mr
Asuman Ababiri, an eyewitness.
“They [robbers] entered the office and the
workers thought they were looking for someone. Moments later, they shot dead
the cashier before taking hostage a female worker and forced her to take them
to the manager’s office,’’ Mr Ababiri said. “It is not clear whether they were
looking for the manager because after a few minutes, they came back to the cashier’s
office and grabbed the woman’s hand bag.”
Mr Lawrence Isabirye, another witness said the
two men fled the company premises as several workers fled.
“An accomplice who had a motorcycle was waiting
for them. As they tried to jump on the bike, the gun released a bullet which
hit the leg of one of the men. The two men abandoned the injured man at the
scene as they fled on the motorbike,” Mr Isabirye said.
Ms Sylvia Kitimbo, the woman whose bag was
snatched said it contained Shs2 million and two smartphones.
The injured man was taken to Jinja Hospital by
good Samaritans who did not know that he was a suspected robber.
After learning that the injured man was in
hospital, irate rice mill workers and residents stormed the health facility in
an attempt to kill him. They were, however, blocked by police officers.
Jinja District Police Commander, Mr Vincent
Irama, said they recovered a gun, a police uniform and some money at the
crime scene.
Mr Irama, however, refuted allegations that the
injured man, who is being treated as a key suspect, is a police officer.

Haryana Minister of State for Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer
Affairs, Karan Dev Kamboj on Thursday said that steel silos of 9.50 lakh MT
capacity would be built for the safe storage of foodgrains in the State.
“For this, tender process has been started. Approval has been
given for the construction of steel silos in Ambala, Faridabad, Bhiwani,
Rohtak, Jagadhri, Hansi, Uchana, Kurukshetra and Karnal,” the Minister said
while talking to the mediapersons here.
So far, the Food and Civil Supplies Department and other
procurement agencies of the state have 84.39 lakh MT storage capacity. Kamboj
claimed that due to various steps of the department, there is zero wastage of
foodgrains from 2016 onwards. In the year 2013-14, out of the total foodgrains
procured by the Government, 9549 MT was spoiled, which was reduced to 36 MT in
the year 2015-16 and later it was brought to zero, he said adding that
disciplinary action has been taken against employees or officials who were
responsible for spoilage of foodgrains.
On the issue of defaulters rice millers, the Minister said that
FIR had been registered against 94 defaulter rice millers from the year 2013 to
2017.
Besides taking action on rice millers for not delivering the
custom milled rice (CMR), actions are also being taken against the concerned
inspector and sub-inspector, assistant food and supplies officer, he said.
Delivery of 1,736 tonnes of rice of Kharif crops of rice millers
were pending to Food Corporation of India in 2016-17. The State Government has
a launched special campaign for recovery from rice millers, resultantly, in the
last two years about 99 per cent CMR has been recovered, the
Minister said.
Kamboj also said that the State Government has recovered about Rs
11 crore for pending CMR of 2013-14 and 2015-16, from two rice millers. Besides
this, directions were issued to attach property of three other rice millers of
Kurukshetra by Deputy Commissioner to the tune of about Rs 25 crore.
Cashless facility pilot project
to begin in Pkl
The Minister said that cashless facility would be started as a
pilot project in district Panchkula for depot holders and Public Distribution
System (PDS) consumers. Thereafter, the scheme would be implemented across the
state. For this, current bank accounts of all depot holders are being opened in
PNB banks, he added. With a view to ensure providing timely ration to consumers
in the state, they have been linked with Aadhaar which has resulted in ousting
of 25 lakh fake beneficiaries that has saved Rs 400 crore annually to the State
exchequer, Kamboj said.
He further said that no ration cards were printed in the state
after 2005. The present Government has got 80 lakh ration cards printed
in four colours namely khaki, yellow, green and pink, he added.
Brick kilns have to adopt
zig-zag technique by Oct
“With a view to make the state pollution-free, all the brick kilns
would have to adopt zig-zag technique. No Brick Kiln owner would be allowed to
use old techniques in brick kilns after October 1,” the Minister said. At
present, there are 2741 brick kilns in the state, which adds to air and noise
pollution, he said. The Minister said that for the health of the people and to
make the state pollution free, the government had formulated a policy for brick
kilns in 2017 and every brick would have to follow this policy. So far, 75 per
cent of the brick kiln owners have adopted the zig-zag technique.
Action to be taken against
vendors for duping consumers
Kamboj said that if any vendor is found weighing sweets alongwith
the box, strict action would be initiated against him.
During festival season, some vendors sell sweets by weighing them
alongwith the box. If any complaint in this regard is received, action would be
initiated against the vendor. The vendors can charge for boxes separately, but
they cannot weight sweets or items alongwith box, he said. Under ‘Jago Grahak
Jago’ scheme, some vendors were challaned during recent years and Rs 12 lakh
was imposed as fine, he added.
A New Type of Fortified Rice Approved for Food Aid
WASHINGTON, DC -- Fortified rice was
approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for inclusion in the
commodity master list nearly four years ago. Since that time and through
the end of 2017, rice tonnage in food assistance has been increasing as more
fortified and regular milled rice has been programmed in USDA's McGovern Dole
Food for Education and Food for Progress programs, as well as the U.S. Agency
for International Development (USAID) Food for Peace Program.
In 2017, of the 103,000 MT of rice used in global feeding programs, approximately 25 percent or 25,000 MT consisted of fortified rice.
The World Food Programme (WFP), as well as other relief organizations have expressed interest in increasing their use of fortified rice in global feeding programs. Additionally, USAID has committed to using all fortified rice in their future programs.
"While the potential for significant tonnage increase has been present for some time, the fortified rice numbers are lower than what USA Rice had forecast, particularly given the current ongoing global hunger crisis," said Bobby Hanks, chairman of the USA Rice Food Aid Subcommittee. "For the first three quarters of this year, 15,000 MT of fortified rice has been programmed which suggests that tonnage in 2018 will be at the same level or lower than 2017."
While there are many factors impacting fortified rice tonnage in food aid, USA Rice has worked closely with USDA and USAID leadership, as well as WFP, to ensure that the current commodity specification for fortified rice allows for the use of both extruded and a rinse resistant a fortified rice premix.
Up until last week, the commodity document only allowed for the use of extruded kernels. This may be one of the key factors limiting fortified rice tonnage in food aid and possibly limiting the number of companies that bid on food aid tenders to date.
After years of research, global field testing, and stakeholder meetings, the USDA amended the commodity specification language last week adding the option to use either extruded or rinse resistant coated fortified rice and immediately issued a new tender for fortified rice in Sub-Saharan Africa allowing for either fortification technology.
"This is definitely a positive step towards increased use of fortified rice in global food aid programs," said Hanks. "USA Rice looks forward to continued cooperation with our partners at USDA and USAID as we collaborate on shelf life and packaging details for fortified rice to strength its important role combatting both global hunger and malnutrition."

RICE Daily
WASDE Report Released
WASHINGTON, DC -- Total U.S. rice supplies for 2018/19
are raised slightly from last month due to increased beginning stocks that were
mostly offset by a smaller crop. Beginning stocks are raised 2.5 million
cwt on a 3.5-million export reduction for the 2017/18 crop year that is
partially offset by increased domestic and residual use. U.S. rice
production is lowered 2.1 million cwt to 210.9 million on the first
survey-based yield forecast of the 2018/19 season. Long grain production
is lowered 2.8 million cwt, while combined medium and short grain is raised
700,000 cwt. The all rice yield forecast is lowered 76 pounds per acre
from the previous forecast to 7,523. Exports for the 2018/19 crop year
are lowered 4 million cwt to 98 million on a lack of price competitiveness
relative to both Asian and South American exporters. Ending stocks are
raised 1.4 million cwt to 43.6 million and the 2018/19 all rice season-average
farm price is lowered $0.20 per cwt at the midpoint to a range of $11.40 to
$12.40.
Global supplies for 2018/19 are lowered fractionally on reduced production for Madagascar and Iraq. World trade is raised slightly, led by higher Pakistan exports and Iraq imports. Global exports remain record large. Global consumption and ending stocks are each lowered fractionally.

Rice tariffication to temper inflation
By
Leslie Gatpolintan August

MANILA -- Liberalizing rice trade in
the country can significantly temper inflation, the country’s chief economist
said.
“If the Senate and Congress can
pass the bill on rice tariffication, for example tomorrow, that would have
already an impact, very noticeable impact on food inflation especially,” said
Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Ernesto Pernia in a press conference on Thursday.
Pernia believes the proposed
replacement of quantitative restriction on rice with tariffication will have a
“bigger impact” in addressing inflation because rice has a dominant weight on
the food basket of consumers, especially the poorest 30 percent.
“Our inflation is mostly caused by
the supply side: the availability of goods, high global oil prices. Those are
the main causes of supply side inflation and the unavailability of rice on
time,” he explained.
Along with rice import
tariffication, Pernia said the lowering of tariffs on selected basic
commodities to a uniform five percent agreed among economic managers is
intended as a temporary measure to alleviate the high food prices.
Proposed tariff reductions will
cover farm products like pork, corn, feed wheat and fish.
“The single rate reduction is a
good strategy because it does not affect consumption much. It is easier to
monitor and implement. The measure is temporary as the tariffs will revert once
we get back to our normal inflation target,” he said.
For her part, National Economic and
Development Authority (NEDA) Undersecretary Rosemarie Edillon underscored the
need for the country to build up the resilience of its agriculture sector so it
will not be weather-dependent.
“We should be doing biotechnology
and if we can have more resilient agriculture. What we forecast is that there
would be (inflation) tempering towards the fourth quarter especially if it’s
the impact of tax reform (law), it should dissipate,” she said in an interview.
The country’s inflation rate picked
up to 5.7 percent in July from the previous month’s 5.2 percent, brought about
by the spike in the prices of food and non-alcoholic beverage. (PNA)
An old Kerala family farm is reviving the
near-forgotten navara rice variety
MORE-IN
In Chittur, in the rice bowl of Kerala, the land flattens
conspicuously, its evenness heightened by the undulating Western Ghats that
loom large in the background. Here the Shokanashini (destroyer of woes), a
tributary of the Bharathapuzha, irrigates the dark soil on which grows luscious
paddy. Rains fall often here, enhancing the beauty of the landscape. Of late,
peacocks have come to roost and their shrill cries are heard ever so often.
Narayanan Unny’s Navara Eco Farm is snuggled in this picturesque
scenery. This 125-year-old, 18-acre farm exclusively produces navara,
a rice species acclaimed for its medically beneficial properties.
Consumed traditionally during the wet months of karkidakam and
used extensively in the famed navara
kizhi Ayurvedic treatment, navara is
a rice endemic to Kerala.
Not being a staple variety and used mainly as health food, the
rice lost its prominence after the Land Ceiling Act of 1967, when paddy acreage
was considerably reduced. In 1994, Narayanan Unny quit his computer business in
Kozhikode and took charge of the family farm, after the demise of his father.
He found that the rice with a 60-day life cycle, and consumed
periodically, had being reduced to production of a mere 50 acres from the 2,000
that it once commanded. “Even pure navara seeds
were not available,” says Unny.
He then made and executed a plan for conservation of navara.
It began with a search for pure navara seeds,
and not finding any, not even at the Rice Research Centre in Pattambi, Unny
began seed purification in 15 cents of land, sowing only navara without
another rice variety.
He then planted the pure seeds in 12 acres. “I was clear that
there was a demand for this wellness rice and that it had to be grown organically.”
Navara paddy is delicate with soft
strands that wilt easily and is prone to rice pests. To make it organic, he
tried and tested an array of natural pesticides — neem,
marigold, tulsi, stale fish mix — but found
them wanting in countering pest attacks. Finally, he came up with an innovative
method of using a butterfly catching net to manually comb the paddy for pests
twice a day. Along with his five colleagues, the workers on his farm, he
brushes the paddy daily.
“It is the only successful pesticide-free method,” he says with
pride.
In 2003, the process for Organic certification of the farm was
started. A year later, he along with all stakeholders, pitched for registration
of Geographical Indication of navara.
The move brought together farmers, the Kerala Agriculture University,
Department of Agriculture, rice millers and traders with CII Kerala
facilitating Navara Rice Farmers Society in the process.
In 2007, the rice got its GI branding. “We now have a
traditional product which was on the verge of extinction,” says Unny, adding
that the price of the rice depends on output.
For him, this journey has been special, of carrying forward the
hard work done by three generations of his family. Unny believes that the rice
has the potential to conquer the world as a health food.
“It can be a representative ethnic product.”
And so he presents its story, his story in a telling narrative
as a PPT to documentary filmmakers, scientists, agriculturists,
conservationists, reporters, and chefs, who make a beeline to his farm looking
for the rare purple rice.
There are still more challenges ahead, the current one being
particularly tricky. Wild boars and the preening peacocks that swarm over his
farm destroy the delicate paddy. “Both are protected species. Being the national
bird, we are helpless when it comes to them; the peacocks are not so pretty
after all,” he says with a sigh.
The scientists
said, why not cool the Earth

This will lead to even worse consequences.
Trying to stop global warming by spraying aerosol particles in
the stratosphere was not a very good idea: all of the benefits of slowing
warming can be cut by the fall in yields because of the blackout, the authors
write.
One of the most popular ideas in the field of geoengineering
(directional influence on the Earth’s climate to combat anthropogenic warming)
is the mass spraying in the stratosphere of aerosols containing sulphur
compounds. It is assumed that such a “stratospheric veil” will reduce the
amount of sunlight reaching the Earth’s surface, and slow the growth of the
average temperature.
Jonathan Proctor (Jonathan Proctor) at the University of
California at Berkeley and his colleagues decided to find out how the creation
of such a shield from solar radiation will affect agriculture. Because large-scale
geoengineering experiments is considered too risky, scientists used natural
analogue and the prototype of this process is the eruption of large volcanoes.
For example, the volcano Pinatubo erupted in 1991, was thrown into the
atmosphere approximately 20 million tons of sulfur dioxide, which reduced
global average temperature by about half a degree Celsius.
“Blackout of the planet limits the growth temperature which
helps crops grow better. But since plants need sunlight, his blocking could
have an impact on growth. For agriculture the negative effects of this method
on the scale of equal benefits. That’s about as experimental surgical
treatment: the side effects seem no better than the disease,” said Proctor,
quoted by the press service of the University.
The scientists compared data on the yields of corn, soybeans,
rice and wheat in 105 countries over the period from 1979 to 2009, monitored
data of the illumination and satellite observation of aerosols in the
stratosphere. In the years there have been two major volcanic eruptions, El
Chichon in Mexico in 1982 and Pinatubo in the Philippines 1991. They found that
the additional diffusion of light due to aerosols reduced the yield of all
crops: for example, after the Pinatubo eruption yield of maize due to changes
in ambient light have been reduced by 9.3 percent, and the yield of corn,
soybeans and rice — 4.8 per cent (part of the reduction could be offset by
favorable plants decrease in temperature).
Then, using climate models, they showed that by mid century the
entire gain in yield from a hypothetical “veil” in the form of at least high
temperatures will be closed it down because of the deteriorating light.
Theoretically, farmers can adapt to reduced illumination, such as choosing more
resistant varieties of it, however, the possibility and limits of such
adaptation is difficult to assess.
The researchers note that in some previous works spraying
atmospheric aerosols was associated with an additional yield increase due to
the fact that the scattered light better reaches the leaves inside the crown.
Apparently, this effect is weaker than previously thought, because the authors
did not see a net increase in the yield over the lifetime of aerosols.
According to scientists, their result does not imply that the
method of spraying aerosols should be abandoned, perhaps in other sectors of
the economy the positive impact will be substantial. They insist that before
proceeding to the experiments, you need to understand the benefits, costs, and
risks of geoengineering projects, which while very little is known.

NEW DELHI, AUGUST 10
Better-than-usual acreage under
pulses and oilseeds has lifted kharif sowing this week even though it continues
to be marginally lower than in the corresponding period last year.Till Friday,
the total area planted stood at 924.76 lakh hectares (lh), which is about 1.48
per cent lower than 938.66 lh sown during the same period last year, according
to the latest sowing data released by the Agriculture Ministry.
The planting of rice was down by
2.85 per cent on lack of rains as compared to last year. While there was a
significant increase in transplantation reported from many States, including
Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Haryana and Punjab,
the rice acreage was down in West Bengal, Manipur and Assam. The area covered
under rice was at 307.78 lh.
Coverage of pulses was done on
124.15 lh – a tad lower than last year’s acreage – but more than a million
hectares higher than the normal area sown during the kharif season. While moong
and arhar planting looks promising, urad was down by nearly 12 per cent to less
than 35 lh.
Acreage of oilseeds, driven
mainly by a rise in soyabean coverage, was at 162.47 lh, which is over 5 per
cent compared to the last kharif season so far.Among coarse cereals, the area
under jowar was up 11 per cent from the corresponding week last year, but
bajra’s area was lower by the same percentage.The area under cotton
cultivation, still down by 3.85 per cent as compared to the corresponding
period last year, managed to cross 112 lh. While higher acreage under cotton
was reported mainly from Telangana, Maharashtra and Rajasthan, cultivation was
down in Punjab and Karnataka.
The country as a whole received
481.2 mm rainfall against the normal of 535.6 mm and the overall rainfall
deficit stood at 10 per cent, the official statement said. The major rainfall
deficit States are Gujarat (20 per cent), Jharkhand (25 per cent) and some
North-Eastern States.
Kharif crops planted in 92.5 mn
hectares, 1.5% lower than last year

New Delhi: Rain-fed Kharif crops have been planted in 92.5 million hectares
so far, 1.5% lower than a year ago, according to data released by the
agriculture ministry on Friday. Area planted till date covers 87% of the
seasonal area of 106 million hectares.
According to latest data, plantings
are lower for crops such as rice, pulses, coarse grains and cotton, and higher
for sugarcane and oilseeds, compared to the year-ago period. The uneven spread
of the June to September south-west monsoon, which waters over half of the
Kharif crop area, has led to lower plantings for some crops, including rice.
So far the monsoon has seen a
deficit of 11% compared to the normal or 50-year average, with the highest
deficiency in rice-growing states of Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Assam and
Manipur. Rice, the main Kharif crop, has been planted in 30.8 million hectares
so far, about 2.8% lower than the 31.7 million hectares last year.
Deficit rains in states such as
Gujarat and Maharashtra is likely to impact productivity of cotton. So far,
cotton has been planted in 11.2 million hectares, 3.8% lower than the 11.7
million hectares a year ago.
Among pulses, plantings are higher
for moong and lower for long duration varieties such as urad and arhar.
Overall, planting of different pulses are 2.9% lower year on year, while area
under coarse grains is 3.3% less than last year.
Two major crops where plantings are
significantly higher are soybean and sugarcane. Planting of soybean and
sugarcane is 9% and 1.5% higher, respectively, than last year.
While uneven rains were unlikely to
make any significant dents in aggregate foodgrain production, it could possibly
spike farm distress in parts of Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Gujarat and Andhra
Pradesh.
Rice stocks decline as of July 1
August 10, 2018 | 7:19 pm
PHILSTAR
RICE STOCKS as of the start of
July were estimated at 1.99 million metric tons (MT), down year-on-year and
month-on-month, data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed.
PSA’s Rice and Corn Stocks
Inventory report released on Friday showed stocks as of July 1 were 15.21%
lower from 2.35 million MT a year ago and 15.68% down from the previous month’s
2.36 million MT inventory.
Household stocks made up 49.85%
of the total inventories, followed by warehouses with a 47.47% share. The
National Food Authority (NFA) cornered the remaining 2.68%, with 48.78% of its
stocks from rice imports.
The rice stocks as of July 1 are
considered sufficient for about 62 days, a drop from last June 1 when stocks
were deemed sufficient for nearly 74 days.However, unlike last month when NFA’s
stocks could barely last a day, the agency’s latest inventory is estimated to
last for about a day on the back of the ongoing unloading of imported rice,
which has been hampered by poor weather.
The NFA is mandated to maintain
at least 15 days’ worth of buffer stock at any given time and at least 30 days’
worth of buffer stock for lean months, which starts every July.All three
sectors posted year-on-year drops, with the NFA recording the sharpest at
65.60%. The commercial sector’s stocks dropped 21.12%, while household
inventories slid 0.24%.
Likewise, corn stocks as of July
1 stood at 480,860 MT, lower by 29.66% year-on-year and 18.78% month-on-month.Corn
inventory declined year-on-year in all three sectors. Household stocks slid
7.03%, while commercial and NFA stocks dropped 31.42% and 100%, respectively.
Month-on-month, the PSA reported
a 22.88% drop in commercial warehouse corn stocks which offset the 29.25%
increase in household stocks. — A.G.A. Mogato
Red Cross warns of food crisis in North Korea as crops fail in
heat
The population of 25 million is already stressed and vulnerable
with malnutrition among children that could worsen, stunting their growth, it
said.“This is not yet classified as a drought, but rice, maize and other crops
are already withering in the fields, with potentially catastrophic effects for
the people of DPRK,” said Joseph Muyamboit, the IFRC’s program manager in
Pyongyang.“We cannot and must not let this situation become a full-blown food
security crisis. We know that previous serious dry spells have disrupted the
food supply to a point where it has caused serious health problems and
malnutrition across the country.”North Korea called last week for an “all-out
battle” against the record temperatures threatening crops, referring to an
“unprecedented natural disaster”.
Drought and floods have long been a seasonal threat in North
Korea, which lacks irrigation systems and other infrastructure to ward off
natural disasters.In Seoul, South Korea’s Unification Ministry said it had no
specific information on the situation in the north, but that the Red Cross had
notified them of the heat wave last week.The IFRC was helping the national Red
Cross to support 13,700 of the most vulnerable people at risk, in South
Hamgyong and South Pyongan provinces. It had deployed emergency response teams
and 20 water pumps to irrigate fields in the hardest-hit areas, it said.David
Beasley, the head of the U.N.’s World Food Programme (WFP), visited North Korea
in May to look into boosting food distributions to hungry women and children,
in the latest sign of an opening.About 70 percent of North Koreans are “food
insecure”, meaning they struggle to avoid hunger, and one in four children
under five is stunted from chronic malnutrition, the WFP said at the time. A
2015 drought worsened the situation, it said.

Death toll rises to 29 as Kerala
remains under water
An aerial view of the flooding in Aluva. As heavy rain continued
to lash Kerala, and water levels in reservoirs rose, all the shutters of the
Idukki dam were opened on Friday - PTI
All rivers in
the State in spate; 54,000 left homeless
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, AUGUST 10
Dam reservoirs and rivers overflowed, sections of highways
collapsed and homes were swept away in severe flooding in more than half of
Kerala, after days of incessant rain left nearly 54,000 people homeless and
killed at least 29, officials said on Friday.
Five columns of the Army were deployed in the State’s seven
severely-hit northern districts, out of Kerala’s 14, to help evacuate people
and to build makeshift bridges even as the Navy’s Southern Command was put on
alert after water level in the Periyar river rose amid concern that parts of
Wellingdon Island in Kochi could be inundated.
Casualties
Almost all 40-odd rivers in the State are in spate, officials
said.
Northern and central Kerala have been battered by heavy rains
since August 8, which has left 29 people dead, including three today. Of them,
25 died in landslides and four in drowning. State officials said a total of
53,501 people are now housed in 439 relief camps across the State.
Tourists were barred from entering the hilly Idukki district
after roads caved in at many places.
Army engineers are building small bridges to evacuate people
stranded at various places in Kozhikode and Wayanad.
Red
alert in Idukki
A red alert was issued for Idukki and its adjoining districts in
view of the possibility of release of more water from the Idukki reservoir.
At least 50 tourists, including 24 foreigners, stranded at the
Plum Judy resort at Munnar since Wednesday were rescued and taken to safer
places, State Tourism Minister Kadakampally Surendran said.
People living downstream of the Periyar river in Kochi, and the
Cheruthoni river in Idukki have been alerted. Water levels had crossed the
maximum storage capacity of 24 reservoirs out of the State’s 58 dams, forcing
officials to release water from them, including three of the Idukki reservoir.
The fifth shutter of the Cheruthoni dam in Idukki was opened on
Friday
All five shutters of the
Cheruthoni dam, part of the Idukki reservoir, the biggest arch dam in Asia,
were opened today. One shutter was opened yesterday after a gap of 26 years;
the fifth was opened after 40 years.
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan reviewed the flood situation and
relief works being undertaken by the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and the
NDRF in the morning.
Due to the increase in the water level at Idukki dam, “it is
essential to release water three times more than what was being released now,”
Vijayan said, adding that this will lead to rise in the water levels of the
Periyar river and its tributaries. He appealed to people to be vigilant.
Vijayan has cancelled all his public functions till August 12,
and will monitor the situation from the State capital.
Union Tourism Minister KJ Alphons Kannamthanam said he discussed
the flood situation in Kerala with Home Minister Rajnath Singh this morning.
Singh also spoke with Vijayan, and will make an aerial survey of the
flood-affected areas on Sunday.
Central
help
“The Government of India is providing all the required
assistance, including the services of the armed forces, disaster management
team and other required assistance. Any other immediate assistance requested by
the Government of Kerala will be provided,” Alphons said in a Facebook post.
Colonel Ajai Sharma, Commandant of DSC Centre, who is overseeing
relief and rescue operations, said five columns of the Army have been deployed
in the northern districts since last night.
Small bridges have been constructed to evacuate stranded people
in various places in Kozhikode and Wayanad areas, and rescue operations are
currently under way. “The situation is under control,” he said.
