Ranchi: For the first time in Jharkhand’s nearly 21 years of existence, the projected path of a cyclone is set to pass through the state and likely to leave a trail of destruction. The state government has now scrambled to protect its assets and people apart from making efforts to conduct rescue operations. However, there are no plans to evacuate people currently. On Monday, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a red category warning for East Singhbhum, West Singbhum and Seraikela Kharsawan, saying Cyclone Yaas, which make landfall at the Odisha-West Bengal border on Wednesday noon, will enter the state on the same day. A very severe or severe cyclonic storm will reach Jharkhand through East Singhbhum and will be preceded by fairly widespread rainfall and squally wind with speeds up to 40-50 kmph, the IMD said.
