Lethal

storms batter South

Asia

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

More

than 40 people have been killed and hundreds are unaccounted for in fierce

storms and severe flooding in the Bay of Bengal since the weekend.

Officials in Bangladesh believe at least

1,000 fishermen may be missing.

Indian authorities say hundreds are missing and dozens were

killed in Andhra Pradesh state.

Thousands of people there are homeless after monsoon rains

swelled rivers and inundated villages, disrupting roads and trains, as well

as power supplies.

Alarm bells

The weekend's storms brought heavy rains and caused the sea to

rise up to 3m (10ft) in coastal areas along the Bay of Bengal.

Andhra Pradesh chief minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy said the

situation in three Indian districts in the path of the Godavari river - Khammam

and East and West Godavari - was alarming.

In Orissa state in eastern India, 11,000 people

were evacuated from low-lying areas. State Revenue Minister Manmohan Samal

told the BBC that over 25,000 hectares of rice crop was destroyed by the

storm.

In Bangladesh, 16 fishermen are

thought to have drowned when their trawlers sank in stormy weather.

Up to 1,000 more are missing according to local officials and

the media were reporting that anxious families were waiting along the

coastlines for their relatives to return.

A government official told the Associated Press news agency that

there were not enough boats to conduct a fully fledged search for the missing.

Dear List Members,

 

As predicted on 16 September 2005, “Indian Chart Transit September-

November, 2005. In Indian independence chart the stationary transit influence

of Rahu on natal Saturn and prolonged transit influence of Mars on natal Sun,

Venus and Saturn is likely to result in abnormal weather, damages to crop,

setbacks for coalition Government and its popularity, accidents to all the

means of communications and transportation, loss of wealth, epidemic, disturbed

law and order situation, etc. etc. All these indications are likely to dampen

the sentiment of the investors/stock market, as well.”

 

Dasha was Ve/Me/Me/Me/Mo. Please

note that besides being afflicted by natal Rahu, transit Mercury is conjunct

transit Sun and natal Mercury is conjunct transit Saturn. The Sun and Saturn

are both functional malefics in Navamsha. Venus is a functional malefic in

Rashi and the MMP in Navamsha.
