New Delhi, Dec 22: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday said a special camp was organised in Chennai for expeditious settlement of claims by general insurance companies in areas impacted by cyclone Michaung and similar efforts would be made in four districts of Tamil Nadu affected by excessive rains and flood.

Following Michaung cyclone, four districts–Tirunelveli, Toothukudi, Kanyakumari and Tenkasi — received excessive rainfall leading to flood like situation in these areas.

Once the water in these districts recedes, she said, special camps by insurance companies would be organised to settle claims caused due to flood.
