Calcutta:
Bengal would be “monitor of network plus zones” for the Cyclone Amphan, which is likely to hit the state tomorrow afternoon, Mamata Banerjee said today, review of the agreements in a control room installed in his office building in Kolkata.
Three lakh have been moved to the safety of the seven districts in the most vulnerable area of Bengal, the Chief minister said. “I’m going to spend the night in the control room of tomorrow”, announced to the journalists after a visit to the control room.
Amphan, one of the most intense cyclones over the Bay of Bengal in years, was barreling toward the coast of India and is expected to pack winds with gusts of up to 185 kilometres per hour when it hits Bengal.
Mamata Banerjee warned the people about the cost in against of come out and said he should stay in for the morning of Wednesday, until a clear was sounded Thursday.
“The end of a cyclone can do worse damage, so people should not leave their homes until they get a clear,” he said, recalling that when the Cyclone Fani hit last year, were killed when the cyclone was leaving.
“The storm has three parts, the head, the eye and the tail. I don’t think that the storm is over when the eye passes. Wait until the glue also comes across in his district.”
The number of people moved to the safety is almost three times the number evacuated during the Cyclone Bulbul, which struck Bengal in the month of November.
The mass evacuation has been challenged by a coronavirus infection and the need for physical distance and other precautions.
Ms Banerjee said that the seven districts on alert had enough masks and sanitisers.
“I’m worried about the migrants who arrive at the wrong time. Special “Shramik” the trains should not come to Bengal till the Thursday due to the cyclone,” Ms Banerjee said.
This morning the Minister of the interior Amit Shah, in a phone call with the prime Minister, said that the centre would give all the help.
“I told the minister of the interior, all is well, we have handled the cyclone Bulbul also,” Ms Banerjee told reporters.
