Modi conducted an aerial survey of the affected parts of Odisha and West Bengal from 12:15 pm to 2:15 pm.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Kalaikunda in Paschim Medinipur district, and submitted a preliminary report on the damages caused by cyclone 'Yaas' in the state, a senior official said.
The meeting between the two leaders lasted for around 15 minutes, he said.
Modi flew down to Odisha earlier in the day to review the post-cyclone situation, and then made his way to West Bengal, where the storm wreaked havoc in the coastal districts.
The PM held a review meeting with Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and other officials of the state administrations in Odisha's Bhubaneswar to assess the impact of Cyclone Yaas.
During the review meeting, PM Modi advised the concerned agencies to ensure normal life is restored in the affected areas at the earliest.
Financial assistance of 10 bln rupees has been announced by the PM for immediate relief activities in areas affected by Cyclone Yaas in Odisha, West Bengal and Jharkhand.
