Rain and flood water continued to cause extensive damage across Kerala, triggering a series of landslides that claimed the lives of 27 persons Thursday, taking the death toll to 94. Officials said at least 1.65 lakh people have been lodged in 1,155 relief camps across the state, including 1.12 lakh in Ernakulam district alone. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Kochi Friday to review the situation, said Union Minister of State K J Alphons.
Bollywood stars are using their star power to help the victims. While a lot of Southern stars like Mammootty and his son Dulquer Salmaan have donated money for the cause, a lot of Bollywood actors have come forward to urge their fans to donate money for the Kerala Relief Fund.
