KOCHI, MARCH 31. A group of tsunami victims, under the banner of the Tsunami Relief Action Council, has raised demands like writing off the debts that they owed to various banks and completion of the houses for rehabilitating them. A delegation of the action council met the District Collector, A.P.M. Mohammed Hanish, and presented their demands on Wednesday. The demands included providing relief to all families within 1.5 km radius of the affected area, levelling the swamp near Aniyal Beach at Edavanakadu where around 25 houses are being built, establishing a 100-bed hospital, constructing a strong seawall and initiating steps for helping those who have lost their fishing and other equipment in the tragedy. The District Collector agreed to look into the complaint that many undeserving persons featured in the list of beneficiaries and also to send a team of Public Works Department engineers to estimate the damage caused to houses. The decision to send engineers was taken to bring in an element of objectivity in quantifying the damage caused by the tsunami, Mr. Hanish said.
