Assam-Bihar floods: Virat Kohli-Anushka Sharma pledge to help

Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli and actor Anushka Sharma have pledged to donate for the people who are affected in the Assam-Bihar floods.

According to an official report on Monday, 22.34 lakh people across 22 districts in Assam have been affected by the floods. While 103 people died in flood-related incidents, 26 were killed in landslides, the Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) said in its bulletin.

On the other hand, in Bihar, a total of 24.42 lakh people have been hit by floods across 11 districts in the state. More than 6,800 people have been evacuated by the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) from the flood-hit areas of Bihar till now, a spokesperson of the federal force said on Tuesday.

In a joint statement, Anushka and Virat said in the midst of coronavirus pandemic, the people in Assam and Bihar are suffering due to the “devastating” floods that have affected so many lives and livelihoods.
“While we continue to pray for the people in Assam & Bihar, Virat and I have also pledged to help those in need by supporting these three organisations that have been doing credible work in flood relief & welfare. If this resonates with you, please reach out to support these states through these organisations,” read their joint statement.

With fewer media coverage, not many people are aware of the situation, especially, in Assam due to flood. To make everything worse, the state is also affected by the increasing number of COVID19.

Recently, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas announced that they have made donations to help people of Assam.

Earlier, Kevin Pietersen wrote about the floods and recalled about his visit to the place. England Football Club Arsenal also took to social media to share that they are with Assam.
