The eight states of the Northern Eastern Region will participate in a big way during the Madhavpur Mela of Gujarat due to be held in the first week of April this year. The annual fair is held at Madhavpur Ghed in Porbandar district and the Mela this year will commence on 2nd April, a day after the Ram Navami festival.

As per weather reports, cyclone Vayu which was expected to hit and make landfall in Gujarat is now unlikely to do so. Vayu may skirt the Gujarat coast near Porbandar, close to Dwarka or Okha coast.

Kutch, Devbhoomi Dwarka, Porbandar, Rajkot, Junagarh, Diu, Gir Somnath, Amreli and Bhavnagar districts are expected to be worst affected by cyclone Vayu

The cyclone is expected to hit the coast in Gujarat between Porbandar and Veraval early 13th June morning speeding up to 110-120 kmph and gusting up to 135-140 kmph.
