Urges Contributions to Disaster Relief Fund for Mundakkai and Chooralmalai
Thiruvananthapuram: Malayalis are celebrating another Onam filled with joy and prosperity. Kerala’s Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan extends Onam greetings to Malayalis worldwide. He has made these wishes while recalling the recent disasters in Mundakkai and Chooralmalai. The Chief Minister has requested that this year, people celebrate Onam by contributing to the disaster relief fund. Onam is a festival of Kerala’s harvest and a reminder of an era of equality and harmonious coexistence that once existed. It also serves as a source of endless energy to build a future of solidarity and prosperity, inspired by memories of the past.
This year’s Onam comes against the backdrop of the landslides in Mundakkai and Chooralmalai. We are currently engaged in a significant effort to rebuild homes, restore livelihoods, and revitalize the affected regions both economically and socially. Therefore, this festive occasion should be marked by compassion towards our fellow brothers and sisters who have endured hardship. Let the Onam spirit of unity, which teaches us to treat everyone as one, be a source of inspiration.
We can make our Onam celebrations meaningful by participating in the reconstruction of the disaster-stricken areas through contributions to the Chief Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund. Wishing everyone a Happy Onam!
