With the onset of winter season, there is a shift in low pressure conditions from the north-western plains to the Bay of Bengal. During the middle of November, this shift results in the occurrence of cyclones. The deltas of Krishna and Kaveri rivers (and also Bangladesh) have to bear the fury of these cyclones year after year.

Thumbs up plz!!!!
