Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 1 TDB-AKG/1A/11.00 the House Met at Eleven of the Clock, MR. CHAIRMAN in the Chair 1 Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 TDB-AKG/1A/11.00 The House met at eleven of the clock, MR. CHAIRMAN in the Chair. ----- REFERENCES TO VICTIMS OF NATURAL CALAMITY IN TAMIL NADU, ANDHRA PRADESH AND OTHER ADJOINING AREAS, TERRORIST ATTACKS IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES AND RUSSIAN PLANE CRASH UNDER TRAGIC CIRCUMSTANCES MR. CHAIRMAN: Hon. Members, as you might be aware, more than 180 persons have reportedly lost their lives and several others were injured and many were displaced due to the torrential rains in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and other adjoining regions of the southern parts of the country for the last more than fifteen days. The natural calamity caused immense damage to the houses, crops and infrastructure. The loss of so many innocent lives, injury to the people and damage to the houses, crops and infrastructure is indeed sad and unfortunate. The House joins me in expressing our heartfelt condolences and 2 Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 sympathy to the bereaved families and prays for the speedy recovery of the injured and rehabilitation of the displaced persons. Hon. Members, the past few months have witnessed terrorist attacks in several countries including France, Beirut in Lebanon, Turkey, Baghdad in Iraq, Nigeria and Bangkok in Thailand between August to November, 2015 causing loss of innocent lives. The terror attacks are an act of cowardice and an attack on liberal values, multiculturalism and individual liberties and deserve to be condemned in the strongest possible terms. The House joins me in unequivocally condemning the terrorist attacks perpetrated by the terrorist outfits. In another incident, 224 innocent lives were lost when a Russian plane crashed under tragic circumstances over Egypt on the 31 st of October, 2015. The loss of innocent lives in all these incidents is indeed tragic and unfortunate. The House joins me in expressing our heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the bereaved families and prays for the 3 Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 speedy recovery of the injured. The people of India stand in solidarity with the Government and people of France, Turkey, Thailand, Nigeria, Iraq and Russia in their hour of grief. I request Members to rise in their places and observe silence as a mark of respect to the memory of those who lost their lives in these tragic incidents. (Hon. Members then stood in silence for one minute) (Ends) FELICITATION TO INDIAN SPACE RESEARCH ORGANISATION ON SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH OF ASTROSAT MR. CHAIRMAN: Hon. Members, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched Astrosat, a Space Observatory on the 28 th of September, 2015 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh, taking India into the group of countries that have space telescopes to study celestial objects and processes. Two indigenously made communications satellites, GSAT-6 and 4 Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 GSAT-15, were also successfully launched on the 27th of August, 2015 and the 11th of November, 2015 respectively from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota and Kourou in French Guyana in South America. These launches have added another significant milestone in the development of Indian space technology. The credit for all these landmark achievements, undoubtedly, goes to our scientific community, particularly those working with ISRO. On behalf of the entire House and on my own behalf, I congratulate the scientists, engineers and technicians, who were associated with these projects and do hope that they will continue to scale greater heights and make the country proud of their achievements. (Ends) (Followed by 1B-PK) 5 Uncorrected/ Not for Publication-02.12.2015 PK-KLG/1B/11.05 LEAVE OF ABSENCE MR.

RAMESH (CONTD.): Nellore, Chittoor and my own district Kadapa are affected with very heavy rains lashed out at Andhra Pradesh causing extensive damage to life and property. Sir, more than 40 people died and 150 villages are totally damaged. The flash floods coupled with unprecedented rains caused due to the low pressure in Bay of Bengal resulted in extensive damage. Sir, 86 cms. rain recorded in Nellore itself indicates the magnitude of the problem. Initial estimates indicate that the total losses have been calculated at more than Rs. 3,800 crores due to heavy rains. Now, again, heavy rains have started since yesterday. What the damage is we have to do a survey now. Floods caused extensive damage to crops in more than 2 lakh hectares and infrastructure, including 550 irrigation tanks and canals, roads, electricity and thousands of houses. Sir, there is a national highway six-lane from Kolkata to Chennai. That road has been damaged about five to six days. There is no traffic.
