The report starts from August as the floods struck and chronicles the sequence of events till November. The initial frenzy of the flood & confusion as people panic and relief exists as only a mirage to the slow grind of the government machinery are documented. The report takes a grass root level look at the unfolding of events providing a man on the ground viewpoint to us.

The report also serves as a calling card to the rest of the nation as it remains mostly insulated from the disaster & media attention shifts to greener pastures!
