00:00Now listen to me, I have listened to you carefully, listen to me, this is not going to work like this, this is Sadan.
00:08On 23rd July, the Kerala government was given an early warning from the Indian government.
00:15Please listen to us, please listen to us, don't shout, please read it.
00:20Read the warning that has been sent.
00:23The statement of the Indian government will be given by Nityanandji.
00:30But to clarify a few things, I am standing in front of this Sadan with your permission.
00:38First of all, I would like to express my condolences to all the people who were injured in this incident.
00:55And with great sorrow, today I am standing in this Sadan with immense sympathy for them.
01:06As I said earlier, Nityanandji is the one who is going to answer on behalf of the government.
01:15When you discussed for an hour here, I thought that today's day will be beyond politics.
01:27There will be no political comments on this.
01:30Anyway, due to the purpose or lack of information, some comments were made.
01:39And the whole country sees Sadan, so there should be no misunderstanding in front of the country.
01:48That is why I am standing to clarify.
01:51Due to the lack of information, I do not know, but I want to clarify.
02:01Through you and Sadan, the whole country has been saying early warning, early warning, early warning, early warning.
02:10All the serious words in English have been put in their speech.
02:18I want to clarify in front of Sadan.
02:22On 23rd July, the Kerala government was given an early warning by the Indian government.
02:30On 23rd July.
02:327 days ago.
02:34Then on 24th, then on 25th.
02:37On 26th, it was said that it will rain more than 20 cm, heavy rain.
02:46There is a possibility of landslide.
02:49There is a possibility of flooding.
02:52And people can die in this.
02:55I did not want to say anything.
02:59But the Indian government's early warning system was questioned.
03:04That is why I say, please listen to us, please listen to us, please read it.
03:10Read the warning that has been sent.
03:14And there are many governments in this country who have used this kind of warning to do zero-casualty disaster management.
03:23Even for the Orissa state government, it was not ours at that time, it was Mr. Naveen.
03:29We sent a cyclone alert 7 days ago.
03:33Only one person was killed, he was also killed by mistake.
03:37We sent a cyclone alert to the Gujarat government 3 days ago.
03:41Not a single animal was killed.
03:43But I want to say with great humility.
03:47That you have brought the words here and are only demanding.
03:53There is an early warning system.
03:55The Indian government has spent 2,000 crores for the early warning system after 14.
04:01And this is shared, believe me.
04:05Every state is sent a message 7 days ago.
04:10And that message is available on the site for everyone.
04:15It is also available for the MPs.
04:17But some people say that the sites here do not open at all, they open only abroad.
04:22So now in foreign countries, will there be an early warning system or not?
04:26We will have to look at our site.
04:28Minister, Varsha, listen to me for a minute.
04:34I have heard you carefully.
04:36No, no, no, please.
04:38I will not allow.
04:40Facts and figures and details are being imparted.
04:44Please, Honorable Minister.
05:06Don't miss out.
