According to the Registration Officer attached to the office, the solar panel on the building “was ripped off the roof and is badly damaged.”
Over in Waramadong, the entire roof of a dwelling house, owned by Devonish Joseph, was torn off by high winds.
Consequently, all household articles were swamped due to heavy rains.
