New Delhi: Bollywood star, Sushant Singh Rajput met Nagaland Chief Minister Niephiu Rio on Tuesday, to discuss the current situation and the steps that can be taken to mitigate the damage caused by the recent flooding in the state. While the floods in Kerala have witnessed an outpour of support, the same can’t be said for Nagaland.
The flooding has affected 50,000 people in the state so far, which has compelled the CM to plead for help on social media. The actor immediately cancelled his appointments once his Innsaei team informed him about the situation on Monday, and quickly fixed a meeting with the CM to discuss further on the condition.
Sushant recently donated Rs one crore on behalf of an Instagram fan to aid the relief efforts in Kerala, and also sent a team to take care of on-ground relief. He donated Rs 1.25 crore to Nagaland’s relief fund as an immediate call to action and help the flood-affected people.
The Nagaland CM thanked Sushant for joining the cause and becoming the voice of the state and its people and as a token of appreciation, he presented Sushant with a friendship Gong. (UNI)
