Cyclone Arnab has stalled off the eastern coast of India, moving very slowly and leaving coastal regions in a state of heightened alert.\n\nThe cyclone, which has been tracking parallel to the coastline, has not made landfall but its proximity poses risks of heavy rainfall and strong winds.\n\nMeteorological agencies are closely monitoring the system and have issued advisories for coastal communities to prepare for potential flooding.\n\nAuthorities in affected districts have urged residents to stay informed and to seek higher ground if necessary.\n\nThe slow movement of Arnab means that the threat could persist for several days, increasing the risk to coastal infrastructure and livelihoods.
