GUWAHATI: Reeling under unprecedented flood for over a month now, Nagaland waits for just Rs 100 crore from Centre to repair its damaged network to carry relief work for affected people, but did not forget to contribute Rs 1 crore to Kerala At least 12 people have died so far. With the state’s road network badly damaged, basic essential commodities are either being air dropped or shipped on smaller vehicles to as far as possible.State chief minister Neiphiu Rio talking exclusively to TOI said that he was still waiting for the financial help from Centre he had asked for in the first week of this month to restore the surface communication to carry food and relief items to the affected people.“We would be needing lot money for the repairing the damaged infrastructure but as a priority I have asked for just Rs 100 crore from the Centre as an advance relief to repair the damaged roads. I have met the Prime Minister and home minister also. Nothing has come so far,” Rio said.Ironically, Nagaland government, in which BJP is an ally, announced contribution of Rs 1 crore to Kerala disaster relief fund on August 18 while waiting for help from Centre to tide over the same natural calamity in its state.On August 28, Rio took to Twitter seeking help from the government.
