एक स्‍वागत योग्‍य पहल

साथियों,
हम यहां एक ई पत्र दे रहे हैं, जो कि भारत ज्ञान विज्ञान समिति की ओर से जाने माने समाज विज्ञानी एवं शिक्षाविद विनोद रैना ने अपने मित्रों को भेजा है। बिहार बाढ आपदा से निपटने के लिए यह एक दीर्घकालिक और सुनियोजित रणनीति है, जिसका स्‍वागत होना चाहिए, इससे आपको जुडना चाहिए और ऐसा करने के लिए दूसरों को प्रेरित करना चाहिए।

Dear Friends,
After a somewhat spontaneous and unorganised response to the devastating Bihar floods by BGVS activists residing in the affected districts (many of them being victims themselves), BGVS has now geared itself to work through 7 organised camps, as per the enclosed plan.
The cost for each camp is estimated to be around 400,000 rupees for two months. As a matter of policy, BGVS does not accept funds that invoke FCRA clearance and conditionalities. However any kind of donation from within the country (India) accounts would be most welcome. Please also circulate this amongst such individuals and networks that you know. Any such donations, in the name of 'Bharat Gyan Vigyan Samiti' may please be sent to:
BGVS
YWA Hostel No. 2
G-Block, Saket
New Delhi 110 017
The accounts of such funds shall be maintained in a separate 'Bihar Flood relief Account', which will be audited and made public as soon as the efforts are over.

In solidarity,
Vinod Raina

Please also contact the BGVS General Secretary: Asha Mishra at "asha mishra" asham_200@yahoo.com


BHARAT GYAN VIGYAN SAMITI

A PROGRAM FOR THE FLOOD AFFECTED PEOPLE OF BIHAR

BGVS Bihar is active in all the seven flood affected districts, having better organizational strength in three districts, namely, Madhepura, Saharsa and Supaul. BGVS activists started work in these districts from the very first day; mobilizing food and other resources from the community. It also set up three relief camps in Saharsa district. Governmental efforts for relief and rescue appear feeble and inadequate as of now and need to be augmented. The condition of the affected people continues to be extremely distressing. The immediate need is to rescue people; otherwise their lives will be lost. The responsibility of a grassroots organization like BGVS is to help the people. After assessing the needs of the people and its organizational strength, BGVS has decided to continue its work in 11 blocks of 3 districts of Bihar.
