No. 1: Shri Kuldeep Rai Sharma, Member of Parliament, A&N Islands in
continuation of his earlier letter dated 08.04.2020 regarding arrangements for
bringing our Islanders on free of cost stranded at different States/UTs has
further wrote a letter to the Hon'ble Lt. Governor, A&N Islands on
15.04.2020 informing that since the lockdown period has been extended upto 3rd
May, 2020 and the UT Administration don't have any data about the number of
Islanders stranded in which State/UTs.
Hence, in order to collect the details of each Islander such as name,
current place of stay, city, contact number etc., he suggested that the
Administration may make a central database of all the stranded Islanders in
different States/UTs through a control room by publishing in the news papers,
Pradeshik Samachar, Social Media asking them or their relative to give the
details of such individuals, so that it is easy for the Administration to make
an action plan accordingly for bringing them to Port Blair from mainland free
of cost.
