Mrs. Sabitri Chawra,express that she lived in Natun Basti, Thepelaguri, they suffered a lot during the flood that submerged the entire Village. This village is near to Kapili river, which is just about 800m away, from the village. This family had received flood response relief from Caritas Germany on 12th June 2022 at Thepelaguri. This helped them a lot to tackle with the problems arising during and after the flood. The outcome of the flood relief was very good as well as pleasing, because they could equip themselves with the materials for safety and household/domestic use. After all it helped them lot to protect them. Earlier, before receiving the relief, the family had no access to any of these materials (Tarpaulin, mats, groundsheets, hygiene items, etc) as they are too poor to buy the things. And during flood they had to stay roadside without any of the sheltering materials. And it was a very difficult time for them. But as they had received the materials from Caritas Germany as a response to flood relief 2022, it helped them a lot during the second phase of flood that occured just after few days of relief distribution. The flood totally destroyed their house. Most of their household things were lost in the flood. However, somehow they managed to carry away the shelter kit (tarpaulin, mats, mosquito nets) along with them as they moved to roadside. But the saddest part of this family is that their house got completely damaged. And the Mother and eldest son of this family are mentally challenged. The mother carries a child of about 8 months old along with her. Hence, now, they had no house to shelter themselves and they are residing at nearby monk-ashram near komorakata D-reserve. At present their situation is very crucial as they are suffering from lack of food and drinking water
