Relief for Cyclone Fani victims: Due dates for TDS compliance extended
Several steps have been taken to lighten the burden on the victims of Fani
Earlier this month, Odisha had to withstand cyclone Fani, which left a trail of destruction across the state. As many as 1.2 million residents were evacuated from the vulnerable coastal areas due to prior warnings. However, the cyclone made its way through the coast and destructed property that came in its way. Since the cyclone was of high amplitude, the path to recovery is small and slow. Several steps have been taken to lighten the burden on the victims of Fani, additional steps have been taken to help redevelop the affected area.
