Cuttack: A preparatory meeting to deal with the possible cyclonic storm was held by the Cuttack Municipal Corporation (CMC) on Tuesday.
As the city is likely to be submerged due to heavy rain triggered by the cyclone, the CMC decided to engage 200 motor pumps for drainage of water.
The fire department will also deploy 20 pumps. If necessary, 25 new pumps, will be procured, informed Mayor Subash Singh.
