PB Appeals For Fund Collection

 

THE Communist Party of India (Marxist) has decided to collect money for undertaking urgent relief to the people affected by the huge devastation and loss of life caused by tidal waves, particularly in the badly affected states of Tamilnadu, Andaman & Nicobar, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.

 

Noting that a major effort will be required to provide immediate relief to the affected people and that medicines, clothing and other material will be required, the Polit Bureau felt that to undertake this mission successfully, funds will be required.

 

Accordingly, it has sent an urgent appeal to all Party units to collect money for such relief work by the Party. Demand Drafts/Cheques should be drawn on “Communist Party of India (Marxist)”

 

It also noted that rehabilitation measures will also have to be taken up. Apart from the steps which will be taken up by the Central and state governments, the Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) has asked all the concerned state Party units to immediately organise relief measures in the affected areas.

 

The Demand Drafts/Cheques must be sent to the following address:
