Tanda, Akabarpur Dist.

Dear Manish,

I hope you are all fine there. You would have read in the newspaper about the cyclone ‘Gaja’ and how had it played on the Cauvery delta region. Well, I had a bitter experience when the cyclone hit our town at full speed. Hundreds of trees were uprooted. There was no power supply for four days continuously. We ran shortage of water supply, as we could not switch on the motor. We had to get water from the trains. It was horrible. We could not go anywhere, as there were no transport facilities and the roads were damaged and blocked. There were slush and dust everywhere. Our neighbors fell sick with a fever. I cannot forget that nightmarish week.

We are now slowly returning to normalcy. Don’t worry. We will meet soon.

Your loving friend,
S. Prince
