As Tripura battles one of the worst floods in recent memory, thousands of families are left to grapple with the loss of their homes, livelihoods, and a sense of security. In these dire circumstances, the India Tribal Care Trust (ITCT) has become a critical force on the ground, bringing relief and hope to tribal communities in some of the most affected regions.
Among the hardest-hit areas is Sabroom, located in West Tripura district. Here, entire villages were submerged, leaving families displaced and desperate for help. With food supplies cut off and access to clean water limited, survival became a daily struggle for these vulnerable communities. Responding to their plight, ITCT sprang into action, launching a well-coordinated relief effort that has touched the lives of hundreds of flood victims.
Dry Ration Distribution in Sabroom
ITCT’s focus in Sabroom involved providing life-sustaining dry rations to 100 flood-affected families. This was no easy task—floodwaters had washed away roads and bridges, cutting off access to many areas. Yet, thanks to ITCT’s on-ground volunteers and strong partnerships with local authorities, they were able to reach even the most remote parts of the district.
Each family received a carefully assembled relief pack containing a week’s worth of essential food items: rice, pulses, cooking oil, and other staples that would ensure they had enough to eat during these critical days. For families who had lost everything, this wasn’t just food—it was a symbol of solidarity and compassion.
What sets ITCT’s approach apart is the meticulous planning that went into the distribution. The relief was provided in two phases, ensuring that families weren’t just given a one-time supply but had sustained support as they navigated this period of hardship. The consistency of aid provided immense comfort to these communities, whose daily lives had been turned upside down.
One resident, speaking after receiving a relief packet, said, "In times like these, even a single meal becomes a blessing. ITCT’s support has given us the strength to move forward, even when everything seems lost." These words echo the sentiments of many, as ITCT continues to serve as a pillar of hope for the most vulnerable.
Ongoing Efforts and the Road to Recovery
However, this is just the beginning. The impact of the floods is long-lasting, and while immediate relief has brought temporary solace, the road to full recovery will require ongoing efforts. ITCT is committed to continuing its work in Tripura, focusing not only on providing emergency aid but also on rebuilding lives.
Moving forward, ITCT aims to expand its relief efforts beyond Sabroom. Plans are already in motion to distribute more rations in other affected regions, focusing particularly on tribal communities that have been hardest hit. ITCT’s volunteers are also working with local farmers to provide tools and resources to help them rehabilitate the submerged agricultural fields, which are vital for their livelihoods.
Beyond material relief, ITCT understands that rebuilding homes and restoring livelihoods is just as important. The organization is also planning to provide temporary shelters, along with vocational training programs, to help these communities regain their financial independence.
