With Cyclone Ditwah moving toward the coast, the Greater Chennai Corporation has issued precautionary guidelines for residents.
Key instructions include Do not go outdoors unnecessarily â stay indoors to avoid risk.
Fisherfolk are advised to stay away from the sea; no one should venture to the coast or beach areas amid rough seas.
Avoid staying under trees, hoardings, or around unsecured structures that might collapse in strong winds.
Stock up on essentials ahead â drinking water, milk, candles or flashlights, medicines and other necessities â in case of power outages or supply disruption.
Residents are urged to follow these instructions strictly and remain alert until the cyclone passes.
As Cyclone Ditwah advances toward Tamil Naduâs coast, all flights scheduled to depart from Chennai International Airport heading to destinations like Tiruchirappalli, Thoothukudi and Madurai have been temporarily cancelled.
