Will ask centre to send team to assess damage by Cyclone Fengal, says CM

CHIEF Minister MK Stalin on Sunday said that the state government will request the union government to send a team to assess the damage caused by Cyclone Fengal in Tamil Nadu, especially in Villupuram, Cuddalore, and Chengalpattu districts.

The chief minister added that the damage can be assessed only after the rains subside. "Rains continue in many districts. Only after the rains stop, the government can provide relief assistance to the people affected. Also, an assessment of crop damage will be done after the rainwater recedes. On Monday, we will have a meeting with officials concerned. After the meeting, a detailed memorandum will be sent to the government of India," Stalin said.
