NEW DELHI: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) warned that the country will suffer extreme heat from April to June with the central and western peninsula regions anticipated to be worst affected.
“For the month of April 2024, above normal maximum temperatures are likely over most parts of the country,” IMD said in a press release.
Kiren Rijiju, Minister for Earth Sciences, Government of India, urged stakeholders to take precautionary measures in advance due to the dates for the extreme weather and Lok Sabha elections coinciding.
“It is going to be very challenging for all of us. Since we are the most populous country in the world and face extreme weather conditions, it makes it absolutely necessary for India to prepare in advance,” the minister said in the press conference.
