[PAR] [TLE] Cyclone Bijli [SEP] Cyclone Bijli (JTWC designation: 01B, also known as Cyclonic Storm Bijli), was the first tropical cyclone to form during the 2009 North Indian Ocean cyclone season.  Bijli formed from an area of Low Pressure on April 14.  Later that evening, RSMC New Delhi upgraded the low pressure area to a Depression and designated it as BOB 01.  The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) then issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert for the system and soon after designated it as Tropical Depression 01B.  On the evening of April 15, both RSMC New Delhi and the JTWC reported that the system had intensified into a tropical storm, with the former naming it Bilji.  Soon after, Bilji reached its peak intensity as it approached the coast of Bangladesh.  However, on the morning of April 17, Bijli weakened to a deep depression due to land interaction, before making landfall just south of Chittagong.  The remnants of Bilji continued to weaken as they tracked across northern Myanmar, before RSMC New Delhi issued their last advisory on April 18.  The word Bijli refers to lightning in Hindi. [PAR] [TLE] Chittagong [SEP] Chittagong is a major coastal seaport city and financial centre in southeastern Bangladesh.  The city has a population of more than 2.5 million while the metropolitan area has a population of 4,009,423 at the 2011 Census, making it the second largest city in the country.  It is the capital of an eponymous district and division.  The city is located on the banks of the Karnaphuli River between the Chittagong Hill Tracts and the Bay of Bengal.  Much of Chittagong Division is located within the ecological Indo-Burma zone on the boundary of the India Plate and Burma Plate.  This makes Chittagong the crossroads of the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.  The port city has been known by various names in history, including Chatigaon, Chatigam, Chattagrama, Islamabad, Chattala, Chaityabhumi and Porto Grande De Bengala.
