A series of powerful Kalbaishakhi storms and heavy rainfall have caused widespread damage across Tripura, disrupting normal life in several districts.
Gomati district was among the worst affected, with Udaipur, Amarpur and Karbook subdivisions reporting snapped power lines and blocked national highways due to uprooted trees.
The India Meteorological Department has warned of continued heavy rain and gusty winds of up to 80 kmph over the next three days. Agartala also witnessed severe urban flooding following torrential rainfall.
Manik Saha said the state government is actively managing the aftermath of the severe weather that damaged homes and infrastructure. District authorities have been deployed to carry out relief operations, while the administration has assured support and compensation to affected residents.
