Updated: [falahcoin_post_modified_date]

India and Pakistan are preparing for the first severe cyclone of the year, expected to hit their coastal regions later this week. Cyclone Biparjoy, originating from the Arabian Sea, is forecast to make landfall on Thursday and could reach wind speeds of up to 200kph. Disaster management personnel have been deployed in densely populated regions in the path of the storm. Fishing activities have been halted and residents of low-lying areas will be evacuated if necessary. Climate change is causing an increase in natural disasters such as cyclones, particularly in the Arabian Sea, making it crucial for better preparation and policies for large coastal cities. In 2021, Cyclone Tauktae claimed 174 lives and cost over $1.57bn in damage.
