Top 5 Indian Islands Where Nature Poses a Threat

Admin

Barren Island, Andaman and Nicobar Islands: India’s only active volcano is located here. Eruptions and volcanic activities pose potential threats to anyone venturing too close.
Sundarbans Delta, West Bengal: Home to the world’s largest mangrove forest, it’s also the habitat of the Royal Bengal Tiger. Tidal surges, crocodile attacks, and tiger encounters are risks for locals and visitors.
Majuli Island, Assam: Recognized as the world’s largest river island, it faces severe erosion due to the Brahmaputra River’s changing courses, leading to loss of habitat.
Lakshadweep Islands: These coral islands, though breathtakingly beautiful, are susceptible to rising sea levels due to global warming, which threatens their very existence.
Dhanushkodi, Tamil Nadu: Situated on the tip of Pamban Island, it was hit by a devastating cyclone in 1964, swallowing the entire town. The remnants are a testament to nature’s fury.
