Fiinovation Stands with Chennai

• People formed human chains to save themselves
  from drowning as floods ravaged the southern
  metropolitan city of Chennai.
• The city witnessed the worst floods in decades
  with highest amount of rainfall in over 100
  years.
• Home to 4.8 million people and third most densely
  populated city in the country came to grinding
  halt for almost a week as citizens battered the
  untimely rains.
• In this crisis situation, all of India is
  standing by Chennai to help it gather momentum
  once again.

• Fiinovation reviews the situation as tough as
  huge amount of population has lost their
  belongings due to the floods.
• The centre has poured in funds after sending the
  Indian Army and the NDRF teams to carryout the
  rescue operations.
• As many limp back to normal life, it will be
  challenging for them to restore back to normalcy.
  
• There will be huge amount of investments required
  to improve the ground situation, so that the city
  is better prepared.

• However, Fiinovation believes that for the
  marginalised sections such as slum dwellers, it
  will be more challenging.
• Relief for them will be depending on their luck
  and muscle power.
• As of now, many slum dwellers are taking shelters
  in schools and colleges.
• The social work department of Loyola college has
  accommodated around 1200 people, providing them
  to settle in the dry classrooms with floor mats
  and bedsheets. Student volunteers are also
  providing the people with food and water.

• Fiinovation believes that in this crisis
  situations, the people of Chennai has shown
  immense strengthen and goodness by opening their
  hearts and homes for the victims of the floods.
• Fiinovation would like to urge the corporations
  to take up initiatives to restore normalcy in the
  city and help to develop the capital of the state
  into a Smart City.
• On the part of the government, it must ensure the
  city is developed with proper planning and
  management.
• There should not be any blockage to the flow of
  water due to construction.

6

• Leaving out the sensitive zones such as low-lying
  areas, construction below sea-level, construction
  on river beds etc. are important to avoid such
  flooding.
• Fiinovation hopes that the civic authorities, the
  government and individuals take note of
  unsustainable methods of development and
  construct a future that is sustainable for the
  coming generations.
