Monsoon rains hit India

Radio amateurs in India have been providing emergency communications during
the recent flooding

Greg Mossop G0DUB posted on the IARU Region 1 site:

The eastern side of India was inundated by seasonal monsoon rain with the
major affected area being most of the Bihar state villages.

National Coordinator for Disaster Communication in India, Jayu S. Bhide
VU2JAU, reports that radio amateurs from East Bengal and Patna were in
action passing messages during the flooding

The emergency communications helped the National Disaster Response Force
(NDRF) teams. All HAMs assisted in controlling the communication on VHF
mainly.

The situation was brought under control. The NDRF rescued most of the
people identified by the HAMS in their message handling.

The affected areas now mainly face a problem with drinking water as all the
boring pumps are contaminated due to the flood. Fresh water and food
packets are reaching the flood area.

The monsoonal rain also affected neighbouring Bangladesh but no report on
emergency communications from there had been provided.

– Jim Linton VK3PC, Chairman IARU Region 3 Disaster Communications
Committee with Jayu S. Bhide VU2JAU National Coordinator for Disaster
Communication in India
