There are over 100 relief camps scattered all over Gujarat with over one lakh (100,000) victims. There is shortage of food, water and medical help. Most government functionaries, particularly Ministers, do not bother to visit most of the camps, as their only inmates are Muslims. There is urgent need to reach food, water and medical help to the victims. The following is some of the organizations doing relief work in Gujarat - medicines (neatly labelled), clean clothes and funds are urgently needed -
