The process of providing government relief funds to flood-affected families in Taraiya block has been accelerated. Following the declaration of 31 wards across six panchayats in the block as flood-affected, the circle administration is verifying the affected families. In addition to the previously listed 2700 families, 2200 new names have now been added. This brings the total number of flood-affected families in Taraiya block eligible for government ex-gratia grant (GR) to approximately 4900.

Disaster in-charge Ravi Ranjan stated that the verification of the list of flood-affected families is being carried out as per the directives of the Disaster Management Department. After verifying the previously listed 2700 families, 2200 new names have been included, increasing the total number of beneficiaries to around 4900. He further informed that once the verification process is complete, eligible beneficiaries will receive the GR amount directly into their bank accounts through DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer).

Flood-affected families are eagerly awaiting the relief funds. The inclusion of new names in the list has also raised hopes for government assistance among families who were not included in the previous list. The administration is expediting the verification work to ensure relief reaches eligible families. Pramukh representative Dhanveer Kumar Singh Vikku and Madhopur Mukhiya Sushil Kumar Singh have demanded that the funds be sent to the beneficiaries' accounts by Saptami.
