Cyclone Asna is rare for a number of reasons, including:
✅ Land-born origin
Cyclone Asna originated over land in Rajasthan, which is unusual for cyclones that typically originate in the ocean.
✅ August formation
Cyclone Asna formed in August, which is rare for the Arabian Sea, where cyclones are less common during this month.
✅ Monsoon season
Cyclones rarely intensify into cyclones during the June-September monsoon season due to strong monsoon currents and other ocean factors.
✅ Number of cyclones in the Arabian Sea
Cyclone Asna is only the fourth cyclone to develop in the Arabian Sea in August since 1944.

🔆Rohingya Issue And North-east :
Myanmar’s Muslim minority citizens, residing in the Western Myanmar province of Rakhine.
✅The Rohingya are ethnically, linguistically, and religiously different from Myanmar’s dominant Buddhist community.
✅ About 1.1 million Rohingyas live in Rakhine, Myanmar’s least developed region, with over 78% of households below the poverty line.
✅ A brutal military crackdown in 2017 led to over 700,000 Rohingyas fleeing to Bangladesh, creating a massive refugee crisis.
IMPACT ON INDIA :
✅ Some Rohingya have crossed into North-Eastern states like Mizoram and Manipur.
✅ The influx has stoked anxieties among indigenous communities in North-East India.
✅ Concerns about potential links to extremist groups, although no concrete evidence exists.
✅ Radical Islamists may influence Rohingya youth, promoting anti-India activities.
✅ Rohingyas are spread across several cities and states; It may give the additional burden of refugees.
✅ Providing food, shelter, and healthcare for refugees can strain local resources.
✅ Increased immigrant influx can worsen the job market; Scarcity of jobs leads to reliance on government resources, adding pressure on already limited resources.
