Abstract

This article is a case study of the dynamics of rescue and relief operations in a flood-affected village. It argues that without politicizing the process, it is important to correct discrepancies and inconsistencies in aid distribution so as to ensure services for the left-out, most affected, and disadvantaged, and that post-relief services are offered. Toward this, the role of social-work profession and practitioners, and some strategies are discussed.
