Bhubhaneswar.

1st glimpse of damage I have come across here. Being told there's massive damage in Puri. En route Puri. Since network is patchy, whenever I get internet, I'll do twitter lives to show as much as possible.

Odisha needs help. DONATION LINK- cmrfodisha.gov.in/donation/onlin…
Bhubhaneswar-Puri Highway.

WATCH how electricity poles are being repaired. Capital Bhubhaneswar is still getting erratic power supply. PURI IS IN TOTAL DARKNESS.

In the next tweet, I'll share my interview with Odisha government's sr engineer on the difficulties being saved👇🏻
WATCH & salute how foot soldiers of Odisha are trying to restore electricity, battling many difficulties.

Govt engineer tells me, "Weather is hot & humid. No drinking water. But have to give villages power ASAP"

Will take ~20days to restore power

Shopkeeper Hata Jena lost his son last year. On May 3 he lost his small shop near Malatipatapur bus stand to Cyclone Fani which flung it 50 metre away.
There must be several like him who have lost everything. Government doles would not be enough. One more natural disaster and they may resort to begging. 2/n #CycloneFani
The middle class and well-to-do can always face a natural disaster better than these people. But it's the poor people like Jena who face the brunt of natural disasters more than others. 3/n #CycloneFani

Friends, we're headed to Odisha for #CycloneFani relief work. We will be driving from Vizag up north to Bhubaneshwar/Puri. We will have 3 mobile RO drinking water plants with us, and serve communities affected by the cyclone. @tatatrusts
I will update this thread with requests/information.
Credit where due though. The Govt of Odisha did a stellar job evacuating people. #CycloneFani
