Sagar is located just south of Yemen (Gulf of Aden) and is moving westwards to Djibouti (not to India !).

Last Nov. 2017, cyclone "Ockhi" affected India.
After then, another depression has developed moving towards India.
Some people rushed to name it Sagar, but this depression never became cyclone!

Now, a deep low in the Gulf of Aden met the criteria for cyclone and named "Sagar".

Many people searching in the net for "cyclone Sagar" find the above youtube video
and accidentaly think that Sagar will hit India.
