A. Raja, MP, reviewed preparedness measures undertaken by the district administration for the monsoon season on Monday.
Following a District Development Coordination and Monitoring Committee (DISHA) here, Mr. Raja said that 283 places in the six zonal divisions in the district had been found to be prone to be affected by landslips during heavy rain in the district. Government officials had been designated to be ready to attend to any emergencies during the rain, he added.
The highways departments had also been directed to clear landslips and uprooted trees from the roads using earth movers as soon as possible to ensure smooth flow of traffic. The availability of sufficient numbers of earth movers, ambulances and emergency responders was also checked.
