In the wake of Cyclone Tauktae, Navy vessels, helicopters, tug boats, and rescue ships have been pressed into service to evacuate over 500 people stuck on different barges in the high sea off the Mumbai coast. Rescue operations are still underway.

The storm claimed at least 13 lives and left a trail of destruction in the Saurashtra region after it made landfall near Una in Gir Somnath district Monday, bringing along with it very strong winds and heavy rainfall that damaged nearly 16,500 houses and uprooted over 40,000 trees. Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that he will be visiting Gujarat and Diu to review the situation and damage caused by the Cyclone.
