<strong>Tamil</strong> Nadu CM to visit cyclone <strong>Ockhi</strong>-hit Kanyakumari<br />
district today<br />

KANYAKUMARI: <strong>Tamil</strong> Nadu chief minister Edappadi K Palanisami will visit<br />
Kanyakumari district on Tuesday afternoon -- 13 days after cyclone <strong>Ockhi</strong>-battered<br />
the region.<br />
The cyclone that hit the area on November 29 night and November 30 damaged<br />
thousands of electric poles and trees. It claimed several lives. Many fishermen have<br />
been missing since then.<br />
Fishermen were demanding that the chief minister visit the affected coastal hamlets.<br />
They alleged that the efforts taken by the <strong>Tamil</strong> Nadu government and the Centre in<br />
tracing the nearly 500 fishermen were inadequate.<br />
The chief minister will meet representatives of fishermen at St Jude's College,<br />
Thoothoor, around 3pm.<br />
He is also expected to visit some of the badly affected banana plantations in the area<br />
before chairing a review meeting at the district collectorate, Nagercoil, in the<br />
evening.<br />
Representatives of fishermen communities and organisations are gearing up to<br />
petition the chief minister.<br />
Elaborate security arrangements have been made as there were possibilities of<br />
fishermen staging protests or resorting to road blocks.<br />
