“The state government should have taken proper precautionary measures. They have handled this situation very badly. The state government has failed to deal with the flood situation. When the people are reeling under the effects of flood, the CM is holding a program with the people,” she said.
Incessant rain in the four districts — Kanyakumari, Tenkasi, Thoothukudi and Tirunelveli — of Tamil Nadu left a trail of destruction.
At least 31 people were killed in rain-related incidents days after Cyclone Michaung hit India’s south-eastern coast, causing widespread damage.
