Heavy rain, gusty winds lash western India's Maharashtra after extremely severe cyclone Nisarga made landfall uprooting trees and disrupting communication across the coastal areas.

The incident took place near Alibaug of Raigad District on June 3.

The video shows strong winds coupled with heavy rainfall sweeping through the trees.

The substantial rain brought down the visibility significantly.

Around noon of May 3, the cyclone Nisarga landfall process has begun near Alibaug which is about 60 miles away from Mumbai city, as the cyclonic cycle lays centred over the east-central Arabian Sea.

Around 10,480 citizens have been evacuated by Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) till now, and more than 30,000 have gone to safe locations on their own.

BMC has identified 35 schools serving as temporary shelters for people evacuated from several regions.

Several teams of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) have been deployed in areas expected to be affected along Maharashtra and Gujarat coasts.

Cyclone Nisarga is the second to strike India's coasts in recent two weeks.

Last month Cyclone Amphan, one of the worst storms to have formed over the Bay of Bengal in recent years.
