At least 5,000 people have been evacuated in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh as Cyclone Arnab, a deep depression over the Bay of Bengal, approaches the coast. Heavy rain lashed southern and coastal Odisha on Wednesday, and authorities expect landfall on Thursday night.

Schools and Anganwadi centres in eight Odisha districts, Nabarangpur, Puri, Jagatsinghpur, Ganjam, Gajapati, Koraput, Khurda and Malkangiri, have been ordered to remain closed on Thursday, September 24.
The India Meteorological Department has issued warnings for heavy rainfall in both states as the cyclone intensifies.
Indiatvnews.com's coverage is uniform straight reporting, leading with evacuation numbers and school closures. No critical or political framing is present. The implication is that authorities have standardised response protocols in place after past cyclones. The key figure to track is the actual landfall location and intensity, which will determine whether further evacuations are needed.
