Chennai experienced one of its hardest time last week as it suffered severe flooding of rain water due to the torrential rains. Like sunshine in darkness, many big hearts initiated relief operations for their people. One such prominent name is RJ Balaji, who along with actor Siddharth, singer Chinmayi and few other industry names handled a relief operation with a lot of calmness and bravery.
After working round the clock since the past couple of days, RJ Balaji has addressed on his next action plan through a video that he posted on his official FB page yesterday, 6th December.
“I started doing this merely because I couldn't resist being a mute spectator. It was an emotional move and I am very happy that youngsters came in large numbers to support the cause. But from a relief movement we want to convert this into a rehabilitation movement. If we consider to revive a victim’s life on a long term basis, these food, water and milk packets are not sufficient. We need to come up with a well organised plan foreseeing all the aspects of the victim’s well-being. Therefore from 7th December we will not provide immediate relief but will take this time to plan a rehabilitation operation.”
This indeed is an appreciable step that RJ Balaji has taken. What this flood has shown the world is “The Power of Humanity” as we hear that the number of volunteers were more than the number of victims in Chennai.
