These rains over parts of state can be attributed to a cyclonic circulation over EastRajasthan, WestMadhya Pradeshand MadhyaMaharashtra. This circulation is expected to shift towards northwest over Madhya Pradesh and East Rajasthan region but will remain in close proximity to parts of Gujarat.

Moreover, a Western Disturbance is also passing through NorthPakistanand adjoiningJammu and Kashmirregion. The interaction of both these systems is likely to give scattered showers over Gujarat region along with some light to moderate spells over Saurashtra and Kutch region for next 2-3 days.
