Cyclone Montha has left a trail of devastation in eastern India, claiming at least two lives and displacing thousands as it battered coastal regions with winds exceeding 120 km/h. 🌊 The storm, which made landfall earlier this week, destroyed homes, uprooted trees, and disrupted transportation networks, leaving rescue teams scrambling to assist affected communities.
Local authorities report widespread flooding in low-lying areas, with emergency shelters operating at full capacity. 🚨 “Our priority is ensuring safe evacuation and providing relief materials,” said Odisha State Disaster Management official Priyanka Mohanty. The cyclone’s impact has reignited discussions about climate resilience in South Asia, a region increasingly vulnerable to extreme weather events.
Meanwhile, social media has been flooded with #MonthaRelief efforts, as young volunteers organize donation drives and share real-time updates. 📱💪 While the storm has weakened, meteorologists warn of heavy rainfall in neighboring states over the coming days.
