HC notice to Odisha govt on removal of chairperson, members of women panel
The Department of Women and Child Development which conducted the performance review of the chairperson and members had found the Commission's performance unsatisfactory.
Heavy rainfall coupled with gusty surface winds are likely to lash many parts of Odisha for the next four days due to a cyclonic circulation, the India Meteorological Department said.
The cyclonic circulation over East-Central Bay of Bengal is expected to take the shape of a low pressure by Sunday, it said.
Under its impact, moderate to heavy rain is likely to lash several parts of the state, mainly coastal and interior areas, till October 9, said S C Sahu, director of the regional MeT centre here.

Heavy rainfall could occur in many parts of the state, particularly coastal areas like Kendrapara, Cuttack, Jagatsinghpur, Khurda, Jajpur, Bhadrak, Balasore and Ganjam as well as the interior regions, the MeT office said.
With forecast of strong winds at speeds of 45-55 kmph along and off the Odisha coast, fishermen have been asked to not venture into the sea.
