The relief work done by Sarada Pratishthan in the pristine condition of Godakath in Gevrai Taluka[edit]

On 6 August 2006, excess water from the dam was released from the Nath Sagar of Paithan into the Godavari River basin. Sharda Pratishthan, a voluntary organization headed by Amarsingh Pandit in the morning on 7 August, prepared to help the flood victims before the district administration.

On 7 August 2006 at 9 am, Amarsingh Pandit contacted the District Collector and made them aware of the seriousness of the crisis facing the villages of Godakath in Gevrai Taluka. After calling a meeting in the Tehsil office and giving appropriate instructions to the Tehsildar and concerned officials, Amarsinghani organized a meeting of all the volunteers of his Sharda Pratishthan on the same day at 10:30 am. In just one hour after calling the office of the foundation, all the systems of the foundation were prepared to help the flood victims.

From the first days, it was decided to start relief centers at Rampuri, Talwara, Bagpimpalgaon (Jaikwadi Colony), Malegaon, Daithan, Savleshwar and Rakshasbhuvan and accordingly action was taken on war footing. 5 pm There was 1,73,601 cusecs of water in the riverbed, the flood had turned into a deluge, the villagers of Godakath were terrified and were not ready to leave the village. In such a situation, Amarsingh Pandit and his colleagues were on one hand requesting the villagers to go to the relief center outside the village, while at the same time the volunteers of the foundation were taking the rations and food materials to the relief center by whatever vehicle they could find, while the volunteers of the foundation were arranging dinner for the people at the 7th center. The center heads of all the centers were in touch with the Amarsihs and kept an eye on every minute detail.

On 8 August 2006, there was an increase in the number of flood victims at the foundation's center, at the Sharda Foundation's relief center in Rampuri, the foundation's volunteers were engaged in arranging flood-affected women and men from Deshmukhwadi, Dhalegaon, Gopatqpapalgaon, Shripatantarwala and Tapenimgaon. At the relief center in Talwada, there were very few flood victims, but food was prepared and sent to the flood victims of Golegaon, Kathoda and Rajapur villages from this place. After coming to the relief center of Pratishthan at Daithan for flood-affected food in Pangulgaon, Sangam Jalgaon, Gondi, Mirgaon, and Hingangaon, we used to sit near the water near the village taking care of our houses. The flood victims from Nagzhari and Agarnandur were getting crowded at the relief center at Bagpimpalgaon Vasahat. Since the Zilla Parishad primary school building there started to fall down, the volunteers of the foundation requested the Jayakwadi administration to make available the empty houses in the colony for the flood victims. The workers of the foundation made arrangements to send food to the flood victims of Surlegaon, Gulj, Patharwala and Panchaleshwar from the relief center at Malegaon. In the relief center at Rakshasabhuvan, the food system collapsed due to the intrusion of flood water in the evening. Finally, the workers of the foundation prepared the pockets of food and delivered it to the flood victims under the leadership of Bhausaheb Natkar, the chairman of the K.U.B.Samithi.

On 9 August 2006, at 12 noon, the Godavari river reached its peak and released 2,77,875 cusecs of water, causing havoc in all parts of Chohobaju as 8 villages of Godakath in Gevrai taluka were cut off. Kuranpimpri, Borgaon, Panchaleshwar, Rakshasbhuvan, Mhalas Pimpalgaon, Sawleshwar Khamgaon, Agranandur, Nagzari, Pangulgaon, Rajapur, Borgaon Thadi, Bhogalgaon, Sripatantarwala, Tape Nimgaon, Raheri, Surlegaon, Kathoda were displaced to the relief center. Amarsingh Pandit and his colleagues were visiting villages to ensure that no one was trapped in the water and taking precautions to reach everyone. Even in this situation, Pandit and his colleagues were actively working to provide relief to the flood victims through Sharda Pratishthan.

At Borgaon, 20 volunteers of the Foundation lost contact with 1,200 flood victims as the road leading to Malega was under water. At that time, with the cooperation of the administration, the flood victims were brought there through Bodhegaon in Ahmednagar district through the logistics establishment. The number of relief centers run by Sarada Pratishthan has now increased to 11.

Dated 10 August 2006 As the water level in the Godavari basin was increasing, an atmosphere of fear was spreading among the villagers of Godakath. Terrified people flocked to the shelter of the Pratishthan's relief centre. There, 229 volunteers of the foundation were tirelessly serving the flood victims. A health team was established by the Health Department of the Zilla Parishad at the 11 relief centers run by the Foundation and the flood victims were being treated there. The foundation was providing food to 17,533 flood victims through 11 relief centers. A separate control room was established at Gevrai for this purpose. 5 vehicles were arranged through Pratishthan to transport food materials. 3793 at Rampuri Relief Centre, 700 at Golegaon, 1250 at Talwada Relief Centre, 1242 at Daithan Centre, 1648 at Bagqpapalgaon Colony, 2200 at Malegaon Centre, 4200 at Borgaon Centre, 1000 at Rakshasbhuvan, 700 at Sawleshwar, 600 at Umapur Centre, 600 at Nagzari Centre. 200 Like this, a total of 17533 flood victims were provided food by Sharda Pratishthan.

On 13 August 2006, between 11 August and 13 August, the water in the Godavari river basin crossed the limit of 3 lakh cusecs and recorded the highest ever flood. From the night of 13th, however, the level of the deluge began to recede, as the flood victims gave up hope of relief. The work of the foundation was appreciated by the flood victims, the volunteers of Sharda Foundation did not commit any fault till the end in the service of the flood victims.
