Danger of land slide is growing again
Representative
Malda: Large part of the village had gone into the Ganges. People got early
indication of the huge land slide so they some how managed to move away. Now
the house and the land had slipped inside the Ganges. Somehow he returned after
saving his life, had to take shelter in the two toilets of the government school.
Since last year, the governments have not been able to do anything for such
people.
In fact, when a part of the village started sinking in the Ganges, most of the area
of this government school has also been washed away. There were two toilets
somehow built sideways. Now he is forced to hide his head in those two toilets,
Sahadev Mandal and his family, residents of Mandalpada. This family of four
members have surrounded some areas with tin sheets in the surrounding area
according to their needs. Sahadev Mandal, his wife Moushumi Mandal and their
two minor daughters are found in this temporary location.
Large part includes sahadev’s farming land also
Sahadev no longer has his own land. The land that he used to cultivate is now
under the Ganges. This family is spending the day in these two toilets of
Shobhapur-Pardevnapur Panchayat. Since last year, this family has requested for
help in every office many times. Sahadev’s wife Moushumi complains that every
leader who came at the time of election had got the confidence of quick help from
the tongue. After the election no one came to peek till today. Like this family, the
land of other people also went into the Ganges. Those who had another
arrangement have left this area and gone elsewhere. But this was the ancestral
land of Sahadev, then he could not go anywhere else except this area, because he
has nothing.
Entire school under landslide except these toilets
School The two toilets that have survived somehow have surrounded them and
made them shelter in some way. The surrounding area is surrounded by laying of
tin and plastic. Their life is passing by this. Even electricity cannot be found here,
so this family stays in the dark even in the rainy season. While there is always a
danger of the breach of the embankment again due to the sudden flash floods near
the Ganges. The owner of many bigha land is now landless. The family’s stomach
was also raised for some days. Now wages have also been difficult to get since
the lock down.
After the matter came under discussion, Vikas Mandal, member of Gram
Panchayat said that this problem is in everyone’s knowledge. Land lease has to be
distributed by the government. Everything is messed up because of Corona. Now
if the lease of land is distributed, this family will get help on priority basis.
In this regard, village head Susmita Ravidas said that the list of all those who had
suffered loss last year has been sent to the government. Only after acceptance
from there will be the sharing of help and relief among all.
