Cyclone ‘Nilam’ sets the clock back
8:00 PM
Cyclone ‘Nilam’ ravaged Tamilnadu within
a day causing power shutdown for hours together, uprooting of trees and chaos
across the state. Heavy winds made life quite miserable for commuters. Everyone
was curious to know about what was happening around them. The only way out was
Radio as there was no other mode to know the information. It provided current
updates, alternate routes, rescue operation and other relevant details which
lessened the worries of public as it reminded everyone about yester years of
radio. Network and telecommunication failure also prevailed in some parts. The
importance of technology development was felt by people. From dawn to dusk the
power of nature has shown its supremacy.
