Well, now that was extremely generous of the celebrities.
In a huge show of solidarity, Kolkata's soccer giant East Bengal raised funds from the spectators after their Calcutta Football League match against Aryan Club on Saturday night. Striker Joby Justin, who is from Kerala, was at the fore front with a banner, which read ''Save Kerala, save humanity'' and went around the entire ground to collect funds, after the game which they won 3-0.
"I will remember this for my entire life. When I will become a former footballer and sitting in Kerala, this is a story I will tell my grandchildren," said Justin.
The Centre has set up over 3,750 medical camps in Kerala to prevent the breakout of diseases. "While no outbreak of any communicable disease has been reported, health experts say that once the floodwaters start to recede, the environment will become conducive for epidemic diseases," a health ,ministry statement said.
After an appeal from the Kerala government, the "first batch of 90 types of medicines in requested quantity" will reach the state on Monday said the ministry.
