The landfall process of the eye of extremely severe cyclonic storm Tauktae, which had hit Gujarat coast in Saurashtra between Diu and Una around 9 pm, ended around 12 am on Tuesday, the India Meteorological Department said. There is no report of any casualty so far, officials said. The state government had shifted over two lakh people to safer locations before the cyclone.
In a relief to the people, the IMD, in its tweet after midnight, also announced that Cyclone Tauktae has weakened into a âvery severe cyclonic stormâ from the âextremely severe cyclonic stormâ. âThe entire eye of the cyclone has now crossed the coast and lies over land. The rear sector of the eye is now entering the landâ the IMD tweeted.
