Kodagu: residents asked to shift over heavy rain

Amidst unending rains in Kodagu, around 20 families at Tora in Virajpet taluk which witnessed a landslide in 2019 that buried 10 persons alive, have been asked to shift as a precautionary measure with no let-up in rain.

With a forecast of heavy rain for Sunday following an orange alert declared by the IMD, the authorities are on alert in the district and the CESC personnel are making efforts to repair damaged electric poles and transmission lines for restoring power supply.
