उत्तर
Now, in India, we have the technology to predict the time and location of a cyclone at least 6 to 10 hours prior to its occurrence. This picture reminds me of the devastation caused by the Gaja cyclone in the recent past. Tamil Nadu government was much appreciated for the timely warning given to the people. Many farmers in Nagapattinam, Thiruvarur, and Pudukkottai districts who had coconut farming were disheartened because it would take a minimum of 15 to 20 years to raise them again. On such disasters, instead of just waiting for the state or center to give doles of mercy, youth across the state, ‘ who are volunteers in NSS, NCC, JRC, Scouts, and Guides can swing into action and help rebuild the victims’ homes by raising funds and by offering labor. Volunteers can generate awareness among people to go for mixed crops and not depend on only one type of crop for their sustenance. Students can dig wells in such cyclone-prone districts because water becomes scarce as all electricity gets disrupted for many weeks. If students pitch in and join in rescue and rehabilitation work, they would be recognized as responsible citizens of the country.
