Bapatla, Guntur and Palnadu district administrations are geared up to mitigate the impact of Cyclone Michaung that is expected to make a landfall on December 5 (Tuesday).
Stating that Bapatla district is likely to bear the brunt of the storm as it falls under the cyclone impact area, Collector P. Ranjit Basha instructed officials to evacuate people in low-lying areas, especially those living in thatched houses, and move them to the government cyclone shelters where all facilities have been made available.
He suggested that people should remain indoors for the next 48 hours.
