MUMBAI: A day after cyclone Tauktae battered Maharashtra’s coast, the death toll rose to 17, while 28 people were critically injured and at least two fishermen from Sindudhurg district were still missing.
Preliminary assessment revealed partial damage to over 11,000 structures and over 13,500 people were evacuated from low lying areas.
