In June 2023 which tropical cyclone developed in Arabian sea and hit Gujarat Coast ?

Question

Accepted Answer

Option 3, Biparjoy, is the correct answer because in June 2023, Cyclone Biparjoy developed in the Arabian Sea and made landfall on the Gujarat coast of India. News reports, meteorological data, and official statements from that time period confirm this.

Here's why the other options are incorrect:

*   **Option 1, Amphan:** Cyclone Amphan occurred in May 2020 and primarily affected eastern India and Bangladesh, specifically the Bay of Bengal region, not the Arabian Sea or Gujarat.

*   **Option 2, Tauktae:** Cyclone Tauktae occurred in May 2021 and did impact the Gujarat coast, but the question specifically asks about a cyclone in June 2023.

*   **Option 4, Nisarga:** Cyclone Nisarga occurred in June 2020 and primarily affected the Maharashtra coast of India, not Gujarat. While it was in the Arabian Sea, it was not in June 2023.

Therefore, only Biparjoy fits the criteria of being a tropical cyclone that developed in the Arabian Sea and hit the Gujarat coast in June 2023.
