MORE ON THE SCENE ACCOUNTS OF THE TSUNAMI
The Pilar Fathers who have been working for over four decades in Andaman and Nicobar had harrowing tales to tell about the tsunami that hit the islands on December 26 last. Miraculously all the Fathers were safe.Fr Pritam Toppo is the parish priest of the island of Hutbay, a 12-hour rocky journey by ship from Port Blair. As the earth shook, he walked out and saw the sea in turmoil. He raised the alarm for all, and raced with the sisters and people in the parish toward a hill about an hour and a half away, time enough to escape the tsunami.
