Getting help in Mumbai..

Got the following mail from Suhail today morning..

Just a quick update that two new blogs that have come up in the past few days, w.r.t. the recent Mumbai flooding tragedy (& in general Maharashtra rains).
http://mumbaihelp.blogspot.com - relief/rehab info, NGOs. hospitals, medical care, ambulances etc...etc. (long-term help)
http://cloudburstmumbai.blogspot.com -- running news tracker, collated by a host of bloggers spread all over (mainly frm Bbay), about news/links related to this incident. e.g. - telehpone/water/electricity going on-off-on in certain areas, roads/rlystations/airports opening-closing etc..drainage, sewerage, filth conditions..even individual calls for help, and getting in touch with lost folks. etc..etc.

More details can be had here from my blog. I am a contributor on both of these. Pls spread the links, on yr blogs, in your organizations and to yr folks who might have anything to do with Bbay. feel free to write back to me, with any queries/suggestions.
