The Adani Group, through its CSR arm Adani Foundation, has stepped forward with a Rs 25 crore contribution to aid Andhra Pradesh amidst severe flooding and devastation. “Deeply troubled by the extensive damage caused by the recent torrential rains and flooding in Andhra Pradesh. The Adani Group stands in solidarity with the people of Andhra Pradesh and humbly extend our support through the Adani Foundation with a contribution of Rs 25 Cr to the relief effort,” Chairman Gautam Adani posted on X, sharing a photograph of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Adani Group’s Karan Adani.
With flood waters now subsiding, residents in the affected areas have been shifted to relief camps. The Indian armed forces have been deployed to provide relief and rescue operations in the hardest-hit regions. Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has inspected various flood-affected zones and personally met with those impacted, assuring them that the state will do everything to help them restore normalcy.
Additionally, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has visited both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Chouhan later briefed Union Home Minister Amit Shah, handing over a preliminary report on the damages caused by the floods and heavy rains in Andhra Pradesh and neighboring Telangana.
