Explanation:
It is a large wave caused because of an earthquake inside the sea. In this lesson, we are going to see some stories of the people who got affected by tsunami on 26th December 2004 which hit Thailand, Andaman-Nicobar islands and some parts of Tamil Nadu.
Some of the stories in this lesson suggest that animals can suspect natural disasters like tsunami, earthquakes etc.
The story is from the Andaman and Nicobar islands. In Katchall, there lived a man named Ignesious. He was a manager in a cooperative society. One day his wife woke him up at around 6:00 a.m and said that she felt an earthquake. Ignesious took his TV from the table and put it on the ground as he didn't want the Television to fall and break. After that, the entire family went out of the house.
When the tremors stopped, they saw the sea was rising very high. All of them got scared, and his two children caught hold of their mother's father and mother's uncle. They all started running in the opposite direction of the sea, and the most unfortunate thing is he never saw them again. Even his wife was swept away in the sea. Only three children who were holding Ignesious were saved.
Next is about Sanjeev a policeman working in the same Kutchall islands. He somehow managed to save himself and his family from the waves. His family consisted of his wife and baby daughter, but he heard the cries of some lady who was the wife of John, the guesthouse cook. Sanjeev jumped to save that lady and got swept away along with her.
Meghna, a 13-year old girl along with her parents and seventy-seven other people, got swept away into the waves. Meghna was holding a wooden door for two days, floating in the sea. She saw the rescue helicopters eleven times over her head, but they could not see her. Finally, the waves brought her to the shore, and she was walking in an emotional and physical shock.
Almas Javed was a ten-year-old girl studying in Carmel convent school situated in Port Blair. Her father had a petrol pump there. Her entire family had gone to celebrate Christmas at their mothers home located in Noncowry island.
Initially, when the tremors came, everyone was in a deep sleep. But Almas's father saw the water going back, realising that it would come back with great force. He woke everyone up and tried to take them to a safer place. While they all were running, her grandfather was hit by something hard, and he fell. Almas's father went to help him, but both were washed away by the first wave. Almas's mother and aunts were holding to a leaf of a coconut tree, but a big wave uprooted the tree, and even they were swept away. Almas fell on a piece of wood that was floating and fainted on it. When she got up, she was in a hospital at Kamorta. Later, she was brought to Port Blair. She is still traumatized about that incident and does not want to talk to anyone about it.
hope its helps you

Dear diary,
Today, when I was reading the newspaper in the morning, I found a news headline regarding tsunami and all of a sudden, my old frightful memories flashed in front of my eyes.
I could still remember the time when I was just 13 years old, floating on a piece of wood in the vast never ending sea, continuously from the past 2 days. During that time, I was starving with hunger, nor I had a single drop of water to drink. I had lost all of my hopes of seeing land and my family again and was simply waiting for my last moment of life. That tsunami, was very disastrous, it ruined everything, my house, farm, cattles, belongings litrally everything I could think of.
But by god's will, finally I am alive and with everything and even more that I had lost in that disaster.
Meghna
