RELIEF
AND REHABILITATION DEPARTMENT, BTC
|
| |
Though the Relief and Rehabilitation department
is not yet transferred to Bodoland Territorial
Council, the Council has been providing
Relief to the Camp inmates affected by the
ethnic violence out of the Plan Fund received
as allocated to the department.
An amount of Rs. 180.00 lakh have been
allocated to this department, out of which
BTC has provided Plastic Tarpaulin HDFC
size 18´×12´ of total
27·10 tons and 16000 nos. of Nylon
Mosquito nets to the Relief camp inmates
and rehabilitated villagers of Kokrajhar
and Chirang Districts during the year 2005-06.
Due to non-receipt of fund from Central
and State Govt. no significant relief could
be provided to the natural calamity affected
victims caused by heavy rainfall, hailstorm,
flood, thunderstorm, drought, etc. Only
a few measures could be provided through
Revenue department.
The State govt. is on active consideration
for transfer of Relief and Rehabilitation
department to BTC. However, it is expected
that on transfer of the subject to BTC better
relief measures could be provided to the
victims of any kind of disaster.
