Rs 50 Lakh  

Cylone Gaja had caused destruction in many districts in Tamil Nadu, making many people homeless. 

In the gathering held at Durbar Hall, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan presented the cheque of Rs 50 lakh to Nambi Narayanan.

Former ISRO scientist Nambi Narayanan praised Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan for taking the stand that the case filed against him was a fake one.

MP Rajeev Chandrasekhar said that Rs 50 lakh ordered by the Supreme Court is no match to the insult the scientist Nambi Narayanan faced in the false espionage charges. The apex court had directed the Kerala government to pay the amount within eight weeks.

Kamal Haasan has also appealed to the workers of his party, Makkal Needhi Maiam, and his fans to contribute generously to the chief minister's distress relief fund (CMDRF)
