Andaman and Nicobar - most affected

Rediff says:
Tropical paradise islands are the worst affected
The current loss of lives in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands currently stands at 3,000 and rising (it might well go up to 4,000).
[...]
When we say 3,000 people in the A&N Islands, it amounts to around 9% of the islands' population.
[...]
On a proportionate basis, the loss of lives in the islands must surely rank as one of the worst disasters ever in India, perhaps in the world.

I am living in PortBlair. The damages done by Media is much more than EarthQuake and Tsunami. Particularly SUN TV bluffed like anything. They told that 2000 people have died in the next day's EarthQuake i.e. on 27/12/2004, where not even a single person died on that day due to earthquake. I will give the details of the other bluffs of Media tomorrow.
