A compensation of Rs.10,000 has been finalized for each family on the first and subsequent floors. In other parts of the state, Rs 10,000 will be given to each family in the flooded ground floor. Chandrababu told reporters the details of this package at the state secretariat on Tuesday night. He said that this is the first time in the history of the state that this level of compensation has been announced for every family that has been flooded.
