Balasore: With a deep depression likely to cross Odisha’s Balasore coast on Saturday, the district administration has decided to close the tourist places for the visitors.

According to official sources, Balasore district collector Dattatreya Bhaosaheb Sindhe has directed the officials concerned not to allow the visitors inside tourist places on Friday and Saturday. The tourist places that have been kept out of bounds for the people are Chandipur, Talasari, Kasafala, Dagara and Panchlingeswar in the district. The tourists have also been advised not to stay in these places overnight.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said the depression over Northwest and adjoining Northeast Bay of Bengal has intensified in a deep depression and is active over the north-west Bay of Bengal, about 200 km east-southeast of Balasore, 140 km east-southeast of Digha (West Bengal).
