Meanwhile, suspected cases of dengue increased in the state to 586 after 45 more blood samples tested positive to the Elisa test on Monday.
At present, the Cuttack hospital is treating 170 cases of dengue, ten of them under intensive care in critical condition. About half of these patients are from the city alone.
After shutting down one running industry, the Cuttack Municipal Corporation (CMC) today ordered to close three more units in Jagatpur on the ground that they are creating public hazard by not keeping their premises clean.
At least eight other units have been issued show-cause notices, sources said.
