The cyclone Michaung has created heavy destruction with its arrival to India. Most of the parts in southern part of India are affected by heavy rain due to this cyclone. The capital city of Tamil Nadu, i.e., Chennai is flooded after it recorded heavy rainfall. Visuals from Chennai are horrifying as common people are facing a lot of problems with their livelihood.
At the same time, police, army and other forces are proving why they are called as our heroes with their efforts of helping out people in this tough situation. Even the Indian Premier League franchise Chennai Super Kings shared a video of praising their efforts.
“Here’s to the humanity and the lion spirit displayed by our heroes! #ChennaiFloods,” said Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a social media post on X (formerly Twitter).

Chennai is called as the automobile and technology manufacturing hub of India. A city with over 6 million population is dependent upon boats, ropes and rafts for their survival from the high intensity flood water.
Not only CSK, but the football tournament Indian Super League (ISL) franchise Chennaiyin FC has praised all the frontline workers who are putting efforts to bring back situation to normal.
In a social media post on X, the football club wrote: “Many of us stayed at home. Stocked up and dry. But many of them stayed out. Cold and wet. Through the storm. Clearing trees, fixing broken lines, pumping out water and getting food and aid to those that couldn’t help themselves. Today the city is coming back to life, and they did that. Kept it alive.”
