Hyderabad, Oct. 6th, 2009

At a time when Kurnool and Mahboobnagar districts of Andhra Pradesh are witnessing large-scale loss of human lives and property due to unprecedented floods, the Sikh community has come forward to help the flood victims.

Central Gurudwara Saheb, Gowliguda, and Prabhandak Committees of Sikh Gurudwaras collected clothes, food and other essential items from community people, voluntary organisations and philanthropists.

A 70 members team of Sikh youths left to the flood affected villages to distribute blankets, medicines, bread, biscuits, rice, utensils, water packets and non-perishable food items to the people who lost everything in the floods, a release by President of Central Gurudwara Saheb Gowliguda, Trilok Singh, said.
