Cyclone Gaja: Victims wait as Tamil Nadu CM vows to see them
The Chief Minister, who is in Salem for the past couple of days, said the government is undertaking the relief works on a war footing
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami would visit the Gaja-hit districts on Sunday to console the affected people.
Palaniswami's announcement came in the wake of the visit of DMK president M K Stalin on Saturday to the fishing hamlets and other cyclone hit villages in Nagapattinam district.
The Chief Minister, who is in Salem for the past couple of days, said the government is undertaking the relief works on a war footing. "The government is taking every effort to remove the trees that have fallen on the roads. Ministers are on the job in the affected areas to restore normal life," he told the media.
Deputy Chief Minister O Panneerselvam visited Kodaikanal, which was also badly hit by the cyclone and supervised the relief works being carried out in the hill town. Traffic on the ghat road, which remained suspended due to landslides has been resumed.
