While the RSS has been busy communalizing the issue of the Jaipur
blasts, it's heartening to see many secular groups involved in
organizing relief for the survivors. Currently, a socio-economic survey
is underway to assess the long-term needs of the survivors, and
activists from PUCL, Free Binayak Sen campaign and AID-delhi are
preparing for long term follow-up.

Below is an appeal to the medical community from AID-Delhi, in
coordination with folks from the Free Binayak Sen campaign (which had
organized free medical camps in the spirit of continuing the work of
Binayak Sen, and has the backing of many physician groups). These groups
are collecting lists of doctors who can be on call to help out, in case
help is needed.

***Please forward widely***

Can you be "*on call*" for our sisters and brothers in Jaipur?
If so, please provide your *name, specialisation, and location*.  Here
is a message from our friends working in Jaipur:

Currently there is no need for any doctors to come to Jaipur as many
have come from all over Rajasthan.

However in the coming weeks there will be a need for specialists of
different kinds- particularly those dealing with bullet injuries,
disabilities, trauma counselling. We need a list of doctors willing to
help the victims in future if required.

Please help out by sending us (* aid.delhi at gmail.com This e-mail address
is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view
it *) names of doctors, their areas of specialisation, location and
nature of  help they can render. This list will be kept purely for use
on a need basis and will be given to doctors in Jaipur who may refer
some of their patients to people on the lists. A charity concert is
being planned sometime in June to raise funds for the treatment of victims.
