- 3 years ago
INS Kochi has been roped in for search and rescue assistance for a barge adrift in Mumbai, with 273 people on board. Several other Indian Navy ships are also on standby for rescue operations. High speed winds and heavy rains lashed Mumbai and its neighbouring areas on Monday as the "very severe cyclonic storm" Tauktae headed towards Gujarat, uprooting trees and disrupting local train services in Mumbai.
