Bangla Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee herself monitored the preventive measures being taken from the control room at Nabanna. She was present at the State Secretariat all night. The State administration had taken all measures to tackle any contingency in view of Cyclone Bulbul.

She had earlier appealed to citizens to maintain calm and not to panic. “Cyclone Bulbul is about to pass through Bengal. Our state administration is closely monitoring the situation 24×7. We are taking all measures to tackle any contingency. Special Control Rooms have been set up and NDRF-SDRF teams are deployed,” Mamata Banerjee said in a tweet.

Schools, colleges and anganwadi centres have been closed and more than 1.2 lakh people have already been rescued from the vulnerable coastal areas, she added.
