Bhubaneswar: Clearing the air about the possibility of the cyclonic storm touching Odisha coast, Special Relief Commissioner (SRC) Pradeep Jena on Tuesday said, no clear sign of cyclone for Odisha. And hence people don’t need to panic.
Jena however asked the fishermen not to venture into the sea along and off the coast from Friday.
“The cyclonic storm may not touch Odisha coast. There is no clear indication of cyclone threat to Odisha coast as of now. We advise the people not to panic and resort to buying generators or inverters,” said Jena.
According to Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), a depression over the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea is very likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm in the next 24 hours and might move towards Odisha-West Bengal coasts.
Meanwhile, the SRC has written to 15 district collectors of Balasore, Bhadrak, Kendrapara, Jagatsinghpur, Ganjam, Puri, Gajapati, Koraput, Rayagada, Nabarangpur, Kalahandi, Kandhamal, Baudh, Nuapada and Malkangiri to brace for any flood and water-logging situation, likely to arise after rainfall from Saturday onwards.
