The correct answer is option 4) i.e. DBCA.
Key Points
● D is the sentence that establishes the subject matter. Hence, it'll be the first sentence after rearrangement. 
● Sentence B highlights the devastation caused by the cyclone. Hence, B follows D.
● Sentence C is the logical successor of sentence B as it talks about the fact that although preparatory moves were in action by National and State Disaster Response Force units, the impact has been catastrophic.
● Sentence A follows C as it introduces the additional challenge (Covid) faced during the time of cyclone. 
 
Thus, the correct arrangement would be: DBCA
