Dereliction of duty
Sir, Your editorial Forgotten people (January 15) categorically focuses on the plight of the people whose lives were transformed when on December 26, 2004 several giant waves hit many Indian Ocean nations. It is painful that even after two years of the disaster they have not been properly rehabilitated. Worse, this situation is something not unique to India. Every nation that was affected by the tsunami has similar tales to tell. We thought enough money had been given to the tsunami affected countries by various governments, NGOs and people around the globe. Why is it that the money stays unutilised or underutilised? I think sometimes it is the public that has to react when it sees such dereliction of duty on the part of government officials.
