Detailed Solution

Eastern coast is frequently struck by cyclones.
India is a peninsular country, and the central mainland is surrounded on three sides by the Arabian sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Bay of Bengal, known as the Western, Southern, and Eastern coasts, respectively. The Eastern coast of India stretches from the Ganga delta in the North to Kanyakumari in the south. The Bay of Bengal undergoes high variation in pressure throughout the year and thus always has chances for the development of cyclones in this region. Hence eastern coastal region in India is frequently struck by storms such as the Asani cyclone.
