Panaji, Oct 27 (IANS): Goa has set up control rooms to gear up for emergencies prompted by cyclone Nilofar, which is expected to pass along the Arabian Sea with the next one day.
"The collector of North Goa has set up emergency control rooms as a preparedness measure to tackle any kind of unforeseen emergencies as a result of severe cyclonic storm Nilofar over west-central Arabian Sea," a government statement said.
The state has seen unseasonal showers for the last three days as a result of a deep depression caused in the Arabian Sea ahead of the cyclone.
