The storm brought strong winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges, affecting the states of Odisha and West Bengal.

Millions of people were evacuated to safety ahead of the cyclone's landfall. However, the storm has still caused substantial damage, uprooting trees, power lines, and damaging homes. Coastal areas, particularly the Sundarbans mangrove forest, have been severely impacted.

Fortunately, no casualties have been reported so far. However, authorities are closely monitoring the situation and are prepared to respond to any emergencies.

The Indian Meteorological Department has warned that the cyclone's intensity may decrease over the next few days, but residents are advised to remain cautious and follow local weather advisories. (ILKHA)
