Question

The name of the cyclone 'Remal' was given by which country?

A.

Thailand

B.

Bangladesh

C.

Oman

D.

Sri Lanka

Correct option is C

The name of the cyclone ‘Remal’ was given by Oman. The word "Remal" means "sand" in Arabic, symbolizing the desert landscape that is prominent in Oman and the Middle East. The naming of cyclones in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea follows a rotational list prepared by member countries of the World Meteorological Organization’s regional body, which includes nations like India, Bangladesh, Oman, Sri Lanka, and others. Each country submits a list of names that are then used sequentially when new cyclones form. In this case, "Remal" was selected from the list submitted by Oman and was assigned to the cyclone that affected parts of eastern India and Bangladesh in May 2024.
