Amrita Math offer on shelters

Staff Reporter

CHENNAI: Mata Amritanandamayi Math is ready to build 200 permanent shelters for the tsunami-hit at Pattinapakkam in Srinivasapuram.

"We have already sent the proposal to the Chennai Collector. We are waiting for land to be allotted," Vinayamrita Chaitanya, head of the Chennai-wing of the Math, told media persons here on Monday.

He said the beneficiaries would be the fisher folk from the area.

Patron Unnithan said the Math constructed houses in Samanthanpettai, Akkaraipettai and Pandagasalai as part of the Rs. 100-crore relief and rehabilitation programme.

The Math officials said they were the first group to hand over one completed village, Samanthanpettai, with 340 houses.

Roads, storm water drains, effluent treatment systems were part of the project.

The officials said after the handing over ceremony, Mata Amritanandamayi would be at the Chennai Math on December 22 and 23. She would be in Chennai after a gap of two years and perform `brahmasthanam.'
