The Odisha government on Wednesday submitted a preliminary report which
estimated damages of Rs 11,942 crore due to cyclone Fani that hit the
coastal districts on May 3.
The government submitted the report
to a central team led by Home Ministry Additional Secretary Vivek
Bharadwaj that visited several cyclone affected areas.
In the
report, the government said the loss to public properties, including
expenses incurred on relief and response operations, was estimated at Rs
11,942 crore.
Odisha has estimated a total financial burden of
Rs 6,767.56 crore for relief and response works undertaken in the
aftermath of the cyclone. It said it would distribute Rs 5,000 crore as
house building assistance and Rs 200 crore as input subsidy to farmers.
"This
is the preliminary assessment. We will undertake village-to-village
survey to assess the loss. We will prepare a final memorandum by the
month end," said Special Relief Commissioner Bishnupada Sethi.
He said that the central team had been requested for revision of certain norms for disaster management.
