Kerala has submerged in deadly rain of the century. Almost all the districts in the state is affected by rain and lakhs of people have lost their livelihood. Hundreds of people have lost their lives. 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.
Muslim community of Dakshina Kannada should help the flood victims the most. They should refrain from overspending during Bakrid,which itself is the festival of sacrifice and donate the money to flood victims through government departments or related organisations, he requested.
