Letter from the Editor
The vision that we had during our school days is now taking shape through this magazine. It took seven years to reach this stage and we have a long way to go. I think it is our third step of a long ladder. On the first step it appeared in the hand written form in the year 2000, then four years later it reappeared in the form of computerised printed copy. Finally Samar has turned from a lad to an adult and will gain more maturity with its age. Here you have first issue of the magazine in a published form.
It is a youth centred magazine, however its spectrum captures all those issues which deserve media attention but unfortunately, ignored by present media barons. The cover story of this issue is based on havoc caused by flood in Bihar in a new dimension.
We have covered Muzzafarpur, Khagariya, Begusrai and other affected regions. Our team has done a case study on a village, Bashi, which was badly affected by flood and a part of it is erased from the land as it was situated in the midst of swift current of river Burhi Gandak which broke the embankments mercilessly.
Officials announced several policies to normalise the situation but all in vain. Many meetings were held, crores of rupees were spent on Centre for Disaster Management and the ground result is not even satisfactorily. Our leaders assess the situation from helicopter time to time. Dropping of food packets from helicopter is one of the ostentatious roles, played by our government. A large section of media covered this exaggerated adventurous events and kept itself indifferent towards the ground realities.
And as regular routine this time too we have presented various articles on other issues. We are trying to search and present everything related to passion and fancies of today’s responsible young citizens of India i.e. from tantalizing music to adventure safari, from sensitive literature to extra terestial philosophies.
Happy reading folks!!

In these days when work load is increasing with rapid pace the importance and role of music becomes instrumental and prominent. Article in this magazine; A journey to the western music presents a deep insight into the world of rock music. I was helped by this article in understanding the role of western music in our society. In this polluted environment where mental peace is a white elephant, perhaps rock music could have a soothing impact on our mind.
In every religion music has got itself mentioned. In Islamic culture, Sufi saints had promoted religion through Sufi music like qawali. In Hindu mythology is directly to Nirvana (salvation).

Article Know Your Neighbour gives us a very good idea about our neighbouring country. Information about neighbouring countries helps us to know where our country stands comparatively.
After all I can say that all the articles in this magazine are very informative. It is an appreciable effort of the team of Samar.

When I read this magazine – SAMAR, I got surprised that in this modern era when everything is topsy turvy, no one is ready to think about the welfare of the society, this magazine is motivating youths to come forward and participate in the reformation of the society.
I especially extend my thanks to the authors of “Brain Drain” and “A tribute to Bhagat Singh” I’m highly inspired by these two articles. I hope that I will be benefited by this magazine.
Lastly I want to say that SAMAR is a jewel which make light in the dark heart of the youths.

Bashi: Devastated by flood, ignored by administration
Faroghe Azzam
This report is exclusively prepared by the team of Samar (Faroghe Azzam and Rahul Vikas) who visited Bashi on 4th September, 2007.
Losses
Even month later water refuses to drain out from the farmland. People like Dashrat Choudhry and Rama Ashish Chowdhary lost their family members. The unpredictable flood swallowed six members of Mahavir Das’s family and left him alone in the old age. He lost his young daughter and son.
● 600 homes of Bashi Panchayat were more affected.
● 8000 acre of land lost its fertility.
● 23 people died
● 17 people are still missing
● Total field area is washed away
● 128 homes of ward five was completely washed away, this ward was situated very close to the embankment
● Flood has swollen around 250 villages of 4 different districts
● Around four to five feet of sand is accumulated over the fertile land of 15 villages.
● All the government institutions like school, Anganbari Kendra, Panchayat Bhawan and so on are almost shut down after the flood.
Relief:
It is very unfortunate for the people of Bashi and more for those hailing from the economically and socially backward classes. A month after the calamity, relief is still to reach the real needy. Flood victims are finding it extremely difficult to restart their life. They say that the government has only distributed 50 kilograms of wheat and Rs 200 per head. “With water all around what will we do with wheat,” one of them asked with anger writ large on the face. They also complained that most of the relief materials were corned by the people belonging to a particular caste. They said that Pasis, Mallahs, Manjhi and Ansaris are yet to receive relief.
Jagdish Sani and his youngest son, saved around 200 lives and many cattle from the clutches of flood. He is a fisherman who belongs to a lower caste. Even his house was immersed under water. He has same courage as our reel heroes have but he played his role in reality, indeed a courageous deed than our reel heroes. He has not charged a single penny for saving people’s lives. For him life is priceless and his conscience do not allow him to take things in return. He was offered thousand rupees from one of the persons he saved but he refused.
This report is exclusively prepared by the team of Samar (Faroghe Azzam and Rahul Vikas) who visited Bashi on 4th September, 2007.A small village, Bashi, witnessed a catastrophic change in its fortune in the wee hours of August 2.

Reasons behind the collapse of the embankment
It is not yet clear as to how the embankment was breached. However, it is said that the administration and nature, perhaps collaborated to cause this disaster. Local people complain that in the last ten years nothing had been done by the administration to strengthen the embankment. No effort was made to plug the holes. This may be one of the reasons for the collapse of the embankment. However, people believe the following reasons for the collapse of the embankment:

This may be one of the reasons for the collapse of the embankment. However, people believe the following reasons for the collapse of the embankment:
i) Lack of Maintenance – It is believed that Sahis (Indian Porcupine), a fossorial animal, furrowed the wall of embankment. The local villagers noticed the presence and activities of Sahis and complained to the administration but their plea fell on the deaf ears.
ii) Nature’s unpredictable change: The officials are of the view that it was virtually impossible to hold back the fury of river, which changed its course, and thus the embankment was bound to give in.
iii) Nepal flushed more water than the previous years. The current of water raised pressure.

Losses
The swirling waters swept away a large number of human beings, cattle as well as many houses. Besides 600 houses of Bashi Panchayat were badly affected by the flood. In all 128 houses in ward number five of the village was completely washed away . Though the flood claimed 23 lives 17 people are still missing. Around 8,000 acres of land lost its fertility due to accumulation of sand.

They also complained that most of the relief materials were corned by the people belonging to a particular caste. They said that Pasis, Mallahs, Manjhi and Ansaris are yet to receive relief.
A young woman asked as to how they could restart their life and built their houses with the meager amount of Rs 200. Instead of the government it is some non-government organizations which appeared more sensitive to the plight of the victims. They distributed relief packets of instant use such as candles, match boxes, biscuits, and sattu.
Local government institutions have made their own definition of a family. According to them family consisting of 2 parents and 3 children are considered as a family. Those who have less than 3 children are not given the relief. Some young married couples who have no kids have complained that official authorities who are disseminating relief call their young wives and ask notorious question and refuse to give them relief as they do not come under the definition of family set by them.
Public Demands:
The dry eyes of the people of Bashi are still waiting for a ray of hope. They are left with nothing except a handful of things that they manage to collect after the collapse of the embankment. That is not enough for them to restart their lives. People of Bashi need nourishment but still ignored. However after talking to them in group, they claimed some demands to fulfill.

As in many other flood-hit villages people in Bashi have made relief camps of their own on the embankment of the river. The government has not made a single relief camp for them. Very few hand pumps in the vicinity are working. Life has come to a standstill in the village. There are no agriculture or business activities. Yet people of Bashi are still hoping against hope of the government help.
● To make the unfertile land fertile.

A Scene of Muzaffarpur
Jitendra Choubey
This is a sketch of scenes of different settlements in Muzaffarpur flooded with water and plethora of problems. The author visited these places in a series of short tours of a citizens’ rescue group. (Tempus Sans ITC font)
SCENE ON THE ROAD
The people have taken refuge along the flank of N.H-77, which is still under construction and that is proving boon for their shelter. Roads were over crowded with the people, they were mainly in old, frayed and soiled clothes. They have kept one end of log of wood partly on the road and partly in front of their there tent houses so that the running vehicle slowed down as they passed through that part of the road.
There were people of all age groups from an infant tucked under women arm to bed stricken old men who have been waiting for last call from heaven .Women were sitting in a group in such a way that they can easily pick out louse from head of each others, some of them seem to be fighting against their hunger as they tried to cook their food.
Children seem to be waifs and stray of the society, wandering aimlessly in a shabby manner, untidy and scattered hair, unchained and un-buttoned pant tied with a bunch of thread called dara which they used to wear as sacred thread. They always looked in jovial mood, playing with goats, throwing toothy smile whenever they found themselves being photographed, and showing surprise over the photographer “Why are you taking photographs of goat, cow, buffalos and so on when the people are already around here?”
Traffic jam was another common scene on the road. Crowd from nearby villages blocked the road to show their protest for not getting relief properly. As the mob blocked the N.H.-77, about 10 kilometres from Ahiya Pur police station, numbers of trucks, loaded with grains and other relief material has been entrapped in a long awaited jam. The mob knew only one way to solve their present life’s riddle is to thrash government officials (B.D.O, C.O and the D.M), and then blocked the road to deliver their message to insensitive government officers.
Sudhanshu Kumar Choubey, C.O. of Gaighat block in Muzaffarpur district, was also trapped in the jam. He had to reach his office around 11 p.m. but he reached around 3 p.m. He said “The petty leaders are cashing in on the situation for their leadership ambition, arousing the misguided emotion of the crowd – turned violent. Sometimes crowd ransack the government offices.” Later he mentioned “Yesterday a B.D.O., in Samastipur was flailed black and blue and thrown in flood water.”
SCENE AT BLOCK OFFICE
A sea of humanity gathered for their turn to get relief. At first sight it was difficult to believe how vehicle of circle officer could make room for it but did successfully, people sighed in relief after seeing their C.O., for whom they were waiting since morning. People had a paper in their hand that was to be signed by the C.O. As the C.O. entered in his office, a deluge of application came and he signed it carelessly but dextrously.
In the hour of peril, a Mukhiya argued with him over fundamental rights and showed the protest by blocking the road, a man sat on a fast and protest against the indifferent behaviour of government officials regarding relief. Everyone was showing their helplessness and wanted their work to be done first. At one corner, crowd gathered for their turn to take their application first, elbowing, abusing and creating nuisance to each other. The fittest among the crowd managed to get an application form for them, where the old and the weak one were watching helplessly and considered them as looser.
The government machinery collapsed in managing the crowd .They were blaming oblivion higher officials and ministers, who worked out the plan to meet this crisis. One of the senior officials told-“The Chief Minister has announced for giving a quintal of wheat for every flood victim family. This announcement created chaos among victims and the rest, who were not affected or partially affected, tried to get their part first and necessity of victim now came at tenterhook. Public created nuisance as the grains did not reach on time for every one. They have to get the relief on serial wise but the people are thinking that they will get it on one time basis”.
The relief in the form of wheat was useless in this circumstance as it is to be transformed into flour for further use. Victims needed instant relief, therefore some people sold the wheat to the local shopkeepers and some exchanged it for other edible things as instant relief like sattu , chura and so on.
At some places, S.A.P. Jawans were preparing Khichadi and distributing among the affected people. That was a fine example of disseminating reliefs for the victims, as victims were directly getting their foods without any chaos.
A CASE OF JAYMALABAD
Jaymalabad is a large village, which is densely populated having around 10,000 people, situated at the outskirts of Muzaffarpur. It was badly affected by flood .A religious organisation, Anand Marg, organised a relief camp in the village under the leadership of Raj Deo Singh with the help of a local Daroga Prasad. They prepared khichadi and distributed it among the affected people. There was no chaos, as the affected people mainly belonged to weaker section, they regard Anand Margies as gentle persons, or may be as a God, and followed the order. Daroga Prasad, an influential person, helped this camp with his own resources like grains, fire-wood, and also provided space for the camp.
As water receded, a social group One Bihar was invited by them to distribute medicine. Then an International organisation Green Power India funded by IFAW visited and vaccinated the cattle and provided medicine for the cattle were the worst affected animal creature.
The camp accomplished their goal without any annoyance. People responded nicely. They thought somebody came from outside to help their cause but their reaction towards local government was not so well. They thought it is their fundamental right to loot the government relief as soon as possible. A woman said in delight “Nitish Kumar (the Chief Minister) made this announcement to loot the relief as much as possible, before the 17th of September”.
Flood: The disaster and its management
MILIND
This report is prepared on the basis of inputs (written and verbal) submitted by experts in a meeting held at PUCL office in Patna on 27th August, 2007.
There is a proverb in English: he gives twice who gives promptly.
Implication of this proverb is: - when you ask for help from somebody, whom you think is a nobleman and he helps you just as promptly as you wanted, then he is giving the double of the help you wanted.
Vice versa; if you are in trouble and asked for a help from somebody and he just slept in sweet dreams, for he was tired of seeing you, then he is doubling and trebling your troubles. This is what happened in Bihar when a trouble (read flood) came and people asked for help from somebody (read government) and just then she went to have nap in the lap of luxuries

.
We heard a lot about Disaster Management for twelve or thirteen months. This word created a romance among youths, and sense of hope among common people who were sure to face the music when flood comes... And created a heap of lust and greed among all those who were least selected to the disaster.
What happened to this cute terminology? When disaster came, where was the management? We, being responsible Citizens of India may know the correct story line (however it is too tattered to stitch) but for that we have to toil hard and sweat profusely.
Scene 1:- There is newly built wing of government called centre for Disaster Management. Experts have opinions about this centre that it is more beautiful, more luxurious and more well-equipped than office of the Chief Minister of Bihar. Perhaps! This wing of the government is richer than cumulative riches of the richest department of the Bihar government. Mr. Vijay Kumar is a social activist working on grave issues of shortage of water and flood in Bihar. He says, “Centre for Disaster Management may be asked through the help of RTI how they manage such a large amount of money.”
He further adds that, “Government has separately made a Disaster Management Act to save us from all kinds of disaster like flood, earthquake, fire, famine etc. A separate council has been made. Not even that, but government has a separate Secretary level officer for management of disaster management.”
Then…! Then…what? It happened like that. All these gentlemen of Centre for Disaster Management (from now on CDM) sat to prepare themselves for the disaster (about which they were sure had to come). They didn’t sit only once. They held their sittings for several times and not only that well before the disaster (in the month of April – May). They created a lot of hue and cry – We are prepared! We are prepared for any kind of disaster to come, as makers of the invincible ship (The Titanic) – had done long before. History knows what end these tall claims meet.
Anyhow these bright gentlemen knew almost everything. They knew that the state of Bihar can be divided in two parts due to the clear demarcation made by the Sacred River of Ganges. North Bihar is in the north of Ganges and South Bihar is in the south of Ganges. North Bihar has several rivers – all of them are tributaries to Ganges – like Gandak, Kamla, Balan, Kosi, Baghmati, Ghughri and Mahananda. All these rivers are deadly dangerous. The crew of the CDM knew about the danger marks for each of these rivers, i.e. when and how do the rivers start flowing above the mark of danger.
These gentlemen even knew about the duration of monsoon in Bihar and the rates of average rainfall in various parts of Bihar. They have got several research papers on flood, they have all the books, information, documents and accessibility and acquaintance to all the physical and invisible requirements needed to control flood. They knew what happened in previous floods in 2004, in 2002 and in 1987.
Scene 2:- On August 2007 flood arrived as an avalanche arrives giving no time for even a scrimpy piece of shelter to rest. What we could do is only to read newspapers finding the devastating news of deaths and destructions all across the northern Bihar. So finally we have found what those gentlemen came out with on whom we relied the most, from whom we asked for help in bad times, (No question of giving help promptly) they ever refused to give an iota.
We the responsible but helpless citizens had nothing in hand only news…news and stories… stories…to listen.
The Titanic (read as CDM) was ripped off. Eleven districts of north Bihar were completely engulfed by the flood. Two crores and three lakhs of people were affected. (The government released this data on 25th August 2007). Which means 25% of the total population of Bihar is affected by flood.
Standing crops and properties of billions of rupees were destroyed (as estimated); approximately 654 people were reported to be dead (from the data issued by the government on 7th September)
When the king’s men (the bureaucrats) arose from their sleeps they found situations slipping out of their hands so they tried to cover their mistakes and shortcomings, keeping the knowledge of the intensity of water currents of the deadly rivers. They used 777 boats (governments’ data of 25th August) to save the people who were in the midst of the flood. They kicked off their choppers to drop food packets to those huddled and hungry masses. And suddenly sky was full of buzzing and rattling noises of those flying machines. It seemed exciting and fascinating, didn’t it?
They said they have provided food packets and relief materials to 50,000 families, Rs. 4000/hectare to those families whose cultivable land and standing crop had submerged in water. Rs. 10,000 per house to those whose house had been destroyed.
Scene 3 – Ramashray Prasad Singh, a Human Right Activist says that there is a wide gap between what is claimed on paper and what is done on earth. What happened in Begusarai and Khagaria was a nightmarish experience for the people.
In Khagaria where Burhi Gandak and Kamla have swept thousand of hectares of land, people were forced to live on the edge. Makeshift settlements have been built automatically on the wrecked embankments. People are still in hope that somebody would come and drag them out of this catastrophe. It was reported that in some places like Alauli, Bachhauta, Chautham ( all in Khagaria) government relief materials have been provided but they are not only inadequate but they reached very late as well. The time when these materials reached many of men & women succumbed to the devastating conditions of flood. A social activist, Mr. Vijay Vatsayan visited a place called Malkauli in Samastipur where he found that people were living on the dam for 23 days. The water of Gandak entered in village on 1st of August and the first official man went to see them on 23rd of August. He was not sure that dam would be a safe place for them for one more week.
Even a bizarre incident occurred in a place where government was trying to provide food packets by air dropping method a certain food packet fell upon and he died on the spot. Lo! What a satirical situation is this – on one hand we romantically narrate the story of helicopters, choppers and food packets, on the other we have to face the silent face of a man who becomes a victim of weight of his own food.
One satisfying thing was that the government had provided food grains without having discrimination between BPL & APL people. Although government had did so earlier and it became a very tough job for the poor masses to prove them that they were very poor. When flood had swept one’s house, clothes, belongings even kins, how difficult it would be for him to show where his BPL card was. Thanks to government that it didn’t happen.
It was reported that government succeeded in providing wheat to 60 % of people in some districts like Sitamarhi (thanks to Special Flood DM, Mr. K. K. Pathak in Sitamarhi; not all the districts were so lucky). Another fulcrum where government put loads of her claims was provision of Rs. 200 and 25 kgs of grains to each family. Hold it on and think for a while – hundred of people are living on the embankments, or on the edge of a national highway and there is no mode of communication available and you give them raw food grains – how would they eat it? Nobody can eat raw cereals. They could neither cook it (no chulha is available) nor they could grind it (all mills are submerged in water). But they have kept it with themselves so that one day they could eat it. Solution to this problem – Mr. Vatsayan says in Madhupur Panchayat of Kalyanpur (dist. Samastipur) some local leaders provided flat rice (chuda) and jaggery (gud) which was not only easily edible but easily digestible too. But this solution was exercised only once or twice in Samastipur. Rest of the time they got wheat and Rs. 200.
Scene 4 –Camps – Experts Say that relief camps were a rare sight in flooded areas. Again it was tool late to supply plastics and other materials to build camps. It was found that many of the camps were built by local helping hands or built on its own. These camps were nodal points to deliver relief materials, compensational grants and medical help but instead of that they gave vent to the people having vested interest in these camps. In Noakothi (Begusarai), Mukhiya was not giving the stipulated sum of money government had allotted to distribute among flood victims. And this was district where several people died due to snakebite although they were living in the relief camps.
Another example – Bangla village in Kalyanpur (Samastipur) had a medical camp under a tree and the tree was near an embankment. The tree had a paper notice tucked on its branch claiming that it was a medical camp. It was reported from Muzaffarpur that BDOs and Mukhiyas had several cartons of medicines abandoned in their offices. Nobody is there to distribute it and nobody is there to receive it.
Scene 5 - Boats - Bagmati broke the Pakar Ghat in Khagaria and emergent need of life saving boats arose but Mr. Singh said that although government claimed that 777 motorized boats had been provided, but only a dozen (or even less than that) were plying on the overflown waters. They wee simply miserable because they could carry either individuals or their belongings only. They could not carry both at the same time. It takes a lot of courage inside a man to give himself in the protection of such boats. Story doesn’t end here. Experts told that boats provide by government were in command of local goons who were charging lot of bucksto carry people from one bank to another. Mr. Vijay Kumar said that these goons & Mallahs had very bad experience with government. Last time (2004) government promised them to provide remuneration on each boat used as a rescue instrument but government failed to keep her promises. (Alas!) Consequently they are not ready to cooperate with anybody.
See how each piece of this story reveals a series of truths behind every hyped untruth. We belong to a country about whom A.L Basham had written – A wonder that was India. We love to narrate stories. No matter where it comes from. Instead of believing natural logic of cause and effect, we believe in wonders, miracles, invisible hands, divine powers. But floods are earthly and natural phenomenon – We have to believe it. It is a disaster that can be managed with men with visible hands (let divine powers have holidays). Let us hope – after all there is no place for despair.
Acknowledment to Mr. Ramashray Prasad Singh from Begusarai, Prakash Louise from Bihar Social Institute Patna, Vijay Vatsayan from Samastipur and Vijay Kumar from Patna.
We heard a lot about Disaster Management for twelve or thirteen months. This word created a romance among youths, and sense of hope among common people who were sure to face the music when flood comes... And created a heap of lust and greed among all those who were least selected to the disaster.
What happened to this cute terminology? When disaster came, where was the management? We, being responsible Citizens of India may know the correct story line (however it is too tattered to stitch) but for that we have to toil hard and sweat profusely.
Scene 1:- There is newly built wing of government called centre for Disaster Management. Experts have opinions about this centre that it is more beautiful, more luxurious and more well-equipped than office of the Chief Minister of Bihar. Perhaps! This wing of the government is richer than cumulative riches of the richest department of the Bihar government. Mr. Vijay Kumar is a social activist working on grave issues of shortage of water and flood in Bihar. He says, “Centre for Disaster Management may be asked through the help of RTI how they manage such a large amount of money.”
He further adds that, “Government has separately made a Disaster Management Act to save us from all kinds of disaster like flood, earthquake, fire, famine etc. A separate council has been made. Not even that, but government has a separate Secretary level officer for management of disaster management.”
Then…! Then…what? It happened like that. All these gentlemen of Centre for Disaster Management (from now on CDM) sat to prepare themselves for the disaster (about which they were sure had to come). They didn’t sit only once. They held their sittings for several times and not only that well before the disaster (in the month of April – May). They created a lot of hue and cry – We are prepared! We are prepared for any kind of disaster to come, as makers of the invincible ship (The Titanic) – had done long before. History knows what end these tall claims meet.
Anyhow these bright gentlemen knew almost everything. They knew that the state of Bihar can be divided in two parts due to the clear demarcation made by the Sacred River of Ganges. North Bihar is in the north of Ganges and South Bihar is in the south of Ganges. North Bihar has several rivers – all of them are tributaries to Ganges – like Gandak, Kamla, Balan, Kosi, Baghmati, Ghughri and Mahananda. All these rivers are deadly dangerous. The crew of the CDM knew about the danger marks for each of these rivers, i.e. when and how do the rivers start flowing above the mark of danger.
These gentlemen even knew about the duration of monsoon in Bihar and the rates of average rainfall in various parts of Bihar. They have got several research papers on flood, they have all the books, information, documents and accessibility and acquaintance to all the physical and invisible requirements needed to control flood. They knew what happened in previous floods in 2004, in 2002 and in 1987.
Scene 2:- On August 2007 flood arrived as an avalanche arrives giving no time for even a scrimpy piece of shelter to rest. What we could do is only to read newspapers finding the devastating news of deaths and destructions all across the northern Bihar. So finally we have found what those gentlemen came out with on whom we relied the most, from whom we asked for help in bad times, (No question of giving help promptly) they ever refused to give an iota.
We the responsible but helpless citizens had nothing in hand only news…news and stories… stories…to listen.
The Titanic (read as CDM) was ripped off. Eleven districts of north Bihar were completely engulfed by the flood. Two crores and three lakhs of people were affected. (The government released this data on 25th August 2007). Which means 25% of the total population of Bihar is affected by flood.
Standing crops and properties of billions of rupees were destroyed (as estimated); approximately 654 people were reported to be dead (from the data issued by the government on 7th September)
When the king’s men (the bureaucrats) arose from their sleeps they found situations slipping out of their hands so they tried to cover their mistakes and shortcomings, keeping the knowledge of the intensity of water currents of the deadly rivers. They used 777 boats (governments’ data of 25th August) to save the people who were in the midst of the flood. They kicked off their choppers to drop food packets to those huddled and hungry masses. And suddenly sky was full of buzzing and rattling noises of those flying machines. It seemed exciting and fascinating, didn’t it?
They said they have provided food packets and relief materials to 50,000 families, Rs. 4000/hectare to those families whose cultivable land and standing crop had submerged in water. Rs. 10,000 per house to those whose house had been destroyed.
Scene 3 – Ramashray Prasad Singh, a Human Right Activist says that there is a wide gap between what is claimed on paper and what is done on earth. What happened in Begusarai and Khagaria was a nightmarish experience for the people.
In Khagaria where Burhi Gandak and Kamla have swept thousand of hectares of land, people were forced to live on the edge. Makeshift settlements have been built automatically on the wrecked embankments. People are still in hope that somebody would come and drag them out of this catastrophe. It was reported that in some places like Alauli, Bachhauta, Chautham ( all in Khagaria) government relief materials have been provided but they are not only inadequate but they reached very late as well. The time when these materials reached many of men & women succumbed to the devastating conditions of flood. A social activist, Mr. Vijay Vatsayan visited a place called Malkauli in Samastipur where he found that people were living on the dam for 23 days. The water of Gandak entered in village on 1st of August and the first official man went to see them on 23rd of August. He was not sure that dam would be a safe place for them for one more week.
Even a bizarre incident occurred in a place where government was trying to provide food packets by air dropping method a certain food packet fell upon and he died on the spot. Lo! What a satirical situation is this – on one hand we romantically narrate the story of helicopters, choppers and food packets, on the other we have to face the silent face of a man who becomes a victim of weight of his own food.
One satisfying thing was that the government had provided food grains without having discrimination between BPL & APL people. Although government had did so earlier and it became a very tough job for the poor masses to prove them that they were very poor. When flood had swept one’s house, clothes, belongings even kins, how difficult it would be for him to show where his BPL card was. Thanks to government that it didn’t happen.
It was reported that government succeeded in providing wheat to 60 % of people in some districts like Sitamarhi (thanks to Special Flood DM, Mr. K. K. Pathak in Sitamarhi; not all the districts were so lucky). Another fulcrum where government put loads of her claims was provision of Rs. 200 and 25 kgs of grains to each family. Hold it on and think for a while – hundred of people are living on the embankments, or on the edge of a national highway and there is no mode of communication available and you give them raw food grains – how would they eat it? Nobody can eat raw cereals. They could neither cook it (no chulha is available) nor they could grind it (all mills are submerged in water). But they have kept it with themselves so that one day they could eat it. Solution to this problem – Mr. Vatsayan says in Madhupur Panchayat of Kalyanpur (dist. Samastipur) some local leaders provided flat rice (chuda) and jaggery (gud) which was not only easily edible but easily digestible too. But this solution was exercised only once or twice in Samastipur. Rest of the time they got wheat and Rs. 200.
Scene 4 –Camps – Experts Say that relief camps were a rare sight in flooded areas. Again it was tool late to supply plastics and other materials to build camps. It was found that many of the camps were built by local helping hands or built on its own. These camps were nodal points to deliver relief materials, compensational grants and medical help but instead of that they gave vent to the people having vested interest in these camps. In Noakothi (Begusarai), Mukhiya was not giving the stipulated sum of money government had allotted to distribute among flood victims. And this was district where several people died due to snakebite although they were living in the relief camps.
Another example – Bangla village in Kalyanpur (Samastipur) had a medical camp under a tree and the tree was near an embankment. The tree had a paper notice tucked on its branch claiming that it was a medical camp. It was reported from Muzaffarpur that BDOs and Mukhiyas had several cartons of medicines abandoned in their offices. Nobody is there to distribute it and nobody is there to receive it.
Scene 5 - Boats - Bagmati broke the Pakar Ghat in Khagaria and emergent need of life saving boats arose but Mr. Singh said that although government claimed that 777 motorized boats had been provided, but only a dozen (or even less than that) were plying on the overflown waters. They wee simply miserable because they could carry either individuals or their belongings only. They could not carry both at the same time. It takes a lot of courage inside a man to give himself in the protection of such boats. Story doesn’t end here. Experts told that boats provide by government were in command of local goons who were charging lot of bucksto carry people from one bank to another. Mr. Vijay Kumar said that these goons & Mallahs had very bad experience with government. Last time (2004) government promised them to provide remuneration on each boat used as a rescue instrument but government failed to keep her promises. (Alas!) Consequently they are not ready to cooperate with anybody.
