Cyclone Yaas: Rescue & Restoration Operations
Bhubaneswar: With the Very Severe Cyclonic Storm Yaas weakening into a severe category after ripping through the north-coast of Odisha upon making landfall between north of Dhamra and south of Balasore , disaster management troops engaged in the storm battle have launched rescue and restoration operations on a war-footing.
Anticipating widespread damage and massive evacuation exercises, the Odisha government had mobilized 60 ODRAF, 52 NDRF and over 200 fire fighting teams in rescue and restoration operations in several districts in north, north-coastal and adjoining districts.
