The landfall time of Cyclone Biparjoy has been informed to be between 4 to 8 PM in the evening of June 15, and currently, the cyclone is moving accurately according to predictions made earlier by the IMD.

Rainfall up to 20 CM is expected to take place as the cyclone hits the state of Gujarat and then moves towards Rajasthan.
