Shatrughan Sinha , Shekhar Suman , Manoj Bajpai , Jha, Udit Narayan were prominent among the Bihar natives present at the press conference.

Nirupam said he is in talks with Wizcraft, the event management company for organising a concert of Bollywood stars next month to raise funds. Jha said, "Kosi Maiyya as we revere her in Bihar is angry. Angry because she has been uncared for and ignored for too long. This time her fury and devastation is unprecedented." "She has changed course by miles and flooded vast areas of North Bihar submerging more than eight districts and displaced nearly three million people. It will take months to even estimate the loss of life and property, But, the trauma that these people have gone through will perhaps never be estimated," Jha said.
