YouTuber, Ashish Chanchlani has come forward to aid the victims affected in the disaster by donating Rs. 1 lakh each to CM Relief Funds for Bihar and Assam floods.
Assam and Bihar are crippled with the deluge at the moment and problems are worsening given that we are in the middle of a global pandemic. Even though the floods happen every year, the current flood fury has claimed many lives and destroyed property worth crores.

People have also lost their lives, gone missing or have been displaced and neither the wildlife could escape the wrath of sweeping rivers. With several districts of both the states being affected by the mighty floods, it is a challenge for the state to fight the natural disaster along with a global pandemic that has already claimed many lives in the states.
Having a huge fan following on social media platforms including Youtube and Instagram, it is inspiring to see that Ashish Chanchlani has extended his support to the grief-stricken people.

Using social media as a constructive tool, he has also raised awareness about the condition of the north-eastern states and how they are battling with the flood fury.
“While the entire country is fighting against the pandemic, it is heartbreaking to see the people of Assam and Bihar getting affected by another disaster. The floods have wrecked villages and affected so many lives adding to their misery. I thought maybe this small contribution from my side can help at least some people in these states and maybe more people come forward and pay attention to the floods in Assam and Bihar,” said Ashish Chanchlani.
