The God’s own country is facing the wrath of nature. After incessant rain for days, Kerala is hit by the worst flood in the history of the state. As more than 150 people have been declared dead so far, thousands are still lying stranded and waiting for help to arrive.
The magnitude of the mayhem is huge and needs massive support of people from all over the country and world. Looking at the gravity of the situation, many are coming forward to help, including Indian cricketers.
Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Virender Sehwag, Shikhar Dhawan and Anil Kumble, among others, are using social media to request people to come forward to help.
Our people in Kerala are going through a worst situation right now and they need all our support. I urge everyone to contribute, no matter how big or small to help save lives ???? #KeralaFloods #humanity #Life https://t.co/L8W8yYnNyI
