A Yellow Alert has also been issued for 24 other districts across the state. Rainfall activity is likely to intensify further from Sunday across Odisha. Several parts of Odisha are expected to experience rain accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning over the next four days. Authorities have advised people to remain alert, particularly in areas likely to receive heavy rainfall.
