It is women and children who get affected the most. The already poor people are now literally helpless. Not only they are facing threat to their lives but also suffering due to unavailability of food and drinking water. In Karnataka, Kodagu district is reeling under heavy rain and flood. Flood in Jodupala near Sullia in Dakshina Kannada has claimed several lives. It is every person's responsibility to respond during this unfortunate fury of nature, Khazi said.
