4 Important points from Srinagar as on Sept.22nd.
- With the tonnes of good quality material,we are also getting a huge quantity of sub-standard material. Many traders use this opportunity to supply bad quality blankets, thin tarpaulins to expired food material.Large number of blankets are small in size and thin which are of no use here at all. Do not just see the samples,check the stock as often the samples are good but inside the packages the material is bad. We faced the same in earlier disasters too.
-Do not send small water bottles, flour, perishable items, expired material, cooked food, chiwra/murmurey etc
- Despite many requests, our stores are again full of clothes.. please do not send the same except woolens as we need space in our stores for other hard pressing needs.
- Urgent needs- Good quality cookers ( only 5 ltrs and ISI marked), utensil sets (6 plates and glasses, 2 cooking vessel with lid and spoons,tea pan, kadai, chimta/tong ),thick blankets and woolens, good quality torches and solar lamps, soaps, disinfectants, chlorine tablets ( only the ones which are good for 10 liters and above), candles & match box, tooth brush and paste,children clothing, floaters and chappals, tea leaves, milk powder, dry ration primarily pulses,spices and cooking oil, sanitary napkins, basic medicines,masks and asthma inhalers.
