The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has proactively deployed 56 teams across five Indian states in anticipation of Cyclone Dana's impending landfall. These teams are strategically positioned in Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and the Andaman & Nicobar Islands. The deployment aims to ensure swift and effective response to any potential emergency arising from the cyclone.
Cyclone Dana, currently situated in the Bay of Bengal, is expected to make landfall along India's east coast, bringing with it heavy rainfall, strong winds, and potential storm surges. The NDRF teams are equipped with specialized equipment and trained personnel to handle a range of disaster scenarios, including rescue operations, evacuation efforts, and providing immediate relief to affected communities.
The Indian government has been closely monitoring the cyclone's progress and has issued advisories to coastal communities, urging them to take necessary precautions. The NDRF's proactive deployment serves as a crucial measure to minimize the impact of the cyclone and ensure the safety of vulnerable populations. The teams are prepared to work alongside local authorities in coordinating rescue and relief efforts and assisting with restoring essential services in the aftermath of the cyclone.
