Bhubaneswar: Even as Cyclone Mora heads towards Bangladesh coast and poses no real threat to Odisha, the government is not taking any chances; it is making all necessary arrangements to deal with any situation.
Collectors of four districts – Mayurbhanj, Balasore, Jajpur and Bhadrak – have been asked to stay alert, as heavy rainfall has been predicted in Coastal Odisha over the next 24 hours. Fishermen have been advised not to venture into the sea.
The Cyclonic storm #Mora is picking up strength in the Bay of Bengal and is threatening to play havoc in Bangladesh, North East India and Myanmar.
