New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced on Sunday that the government will continue to provide full help to the states affected by Cyclone Remal.

During the meeting, it was mentioned that NDRF teams have been deployed as per the needs and they have carried out evacuation, airlifting and road clearance operations.
