Explanation:
The extensive damage caused to private homes, public property (infrastructure), farmlands (due to flooding of sea water - 3-4 km inland) etc. is still being assessed.
The worst affected state in India is Tamil Nadu, although other states viz. Kerala, Pondicherry, Andhra Pradesh have also been affected. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands (A&N), which are nearest to the epicenter of the earthquake, have been badly hit. The tsunami affected 2260 kms of the mainland coastline besides the entire A&N Islands.
In the mainland States it was reported that 162 km. of national highways, 462 km. of state/district highways,14 bridges,78 culverts and a huge number of private homes and government buildings have been damaged.
There was also some damage to water and sanitation systems.
Total financial loss for the mainland States is estimated to be $1.5 billion as of 10 January.
Sectors affected:
Coastal fisheries and agriculture are the worst affected economic activities. Apart from the loss of human life among the fisherfolk, fishing boats, nets, etc. have been extensively damaged. Moreover, fishing harbors and landing centers have also suffered heavy damage.
Agriculture has suffered due to leveling of fields, destruction of irrigation, loss of land due to massive erosion and deposition of non-fertile sediments.
