Nisarga, Gati, Nivar, Tauktae, and Yaas are names of tropical cyclones that formed in the North Indian Ocean region, including the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea [2]. These names are part of a standardized list adopted by the WMO/ESCAP Panel on Tropical Cyclones in April 2020 [2]. The naming process is managed by the Regional Specialised Meteorological Centre (RSMC) in New Delhi, which assigns names provided by 13 member countries to ensure clear communication and disaster management [1]. Specifically, Nisarga was proposed by Bangladesh, Gati by India, Nivar by Iran, Tauktae by Myanmar, and Yaas by Oman [1]. This systematic naming helps the scientific community and general public identify individual storms, remove confusion during simultaneous occurrences, and facilitate effective disaster risk awareness and preparedness.
