About six million people could be in possible danger as Tropical Cyclone Vayu is expected to make landfall in northwest India in the next 24hrs.
Officials say, almost 300,000 people are set to be evacuated to 700 shelter homes, while Schools and colleges in affected districts are closed until Friday.
With winds in excess of 120 kph (75 mph), Tropical Cyclone Vayu could become the strongest cyclone to strike northwestern India in decades. It comes one month after powerful Tropical Cyclone Fani slammed into India’s northeastern coastline.
