St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous) Kolkata along with its Alumni wing, namely St. Xavier's College (Calcutta) Alumni Association came forward to support Hooghly Rural Police in distributing relief materials to Khanakul, Arambag clusters of the District. Notably, recent floods have affected 3-4 districts of our state severely - Hooghly District being the worst affected in decades.
Rev. Dr. Dominic Savio SJ, Principal of St. Xavier's College (Autonomous), Kolkata and President of St Xavier's College (Calcutta) Alumni Association today, on 26th September 2024, flagged off the first token consignment of relief materials which was received by the Kamanasish Sen IPS, Superintendent of Police of Hooghly Rural Police in presence of other Senior Police Officials of Hooghly Rural Police District. The SP office is running community kitchens in various Police stations of the District to feed the homeless villagers there, so these materials are enough to feed villagers of 2 villages for 2 days - as acknowledged by thr SP of Hooghly Rural Police upon receiving the token consignment.
SXCCAA is committed to continue such works in the coming days as well in bigger scale to help the flood affected people to avert this plight.
