Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday announced an interim relief of Rs500 crore and Rs125 crore for cyclone-affected areas of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry respectively.
"The interim relief based on the preliminary reports is Rs500 crore for Tamil Nadu and Rs125 crore for Puducherry which were affected by cyclone 'Thane' in the last week of December," a Prime Minister's Office spokesman said in Delhi.
Cyclone 'Thane' had hit the Tamil Nadu coast and the neighbouring Union Territory of Puduchery on December 30 causing damage to life and property.
A Central government team is currently visiting the affected areas and will submit its report on the basis of which a final relief, as may be admissible, will be sanctioned, he said.
The worst-affected district in the Tamil Nadu is Cuddalore, which accounted for 39 of the 46 deaths in the state due to the cyclone.
The Inter-Ministerial team deputed by the Centre had on Monday met state officials to assess the damage.
