Red alert has been announced in Odisha due to TITLI Cyclone. The level of rainfall in the area increased from heavy to very heavy in a blink of an eye. This has compelled RRB Bhubaneswar to cancel Group D exam on October 11 and 12. The Board announced the cancellation of the examination a day before the exam, i.e. on October 10. The aspirants who traveled from far had no option but to return back without giving the paper. However, the situation in the state has turned so bad that hundreds of candidates are stranded in the railway station as no trains are running due to the destructive cyclone.
TITLI Cyclone is a very severe cyclonic storm. According to the warnings, the cyclone may go above the wind speed of 145 km per hour. North Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Gangetic West Bengal, Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Tripura are also under the radar.
The cyclone season in India is stretched from April to December and the peak is from May to November.
The cancelled exam was to be held in Cuttack, Sambalpur, Dhenkanal, Berhamapur, Khurda, and Bhubanesawr. For the examination, the candidates traveled from all over the state and outside as well. Many candidates came to know about the RRB Bhubaneswar cancelling the exam while their were coming to the exam city and were in the train. At that moment they had no option to return. Most of the stranded candidates also have return ticket but cannot travel back as no trains are running. Candidates are now anxious for their safety and health reasons.
