India is gearing up for an unusually hot April, with weather experts predicting above-normal temperatures in several regions. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), heatwaves are expected in central and northern states, including Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and parts of Maharashtra.
Rising temperatures could impact agriculture, water availability, and public health. Authorities have advised people to stay hydrated, avoid direct sunlight during peak hours, and take necessary precautions against heat-related illnesses.
The IMD has also warned that the prolonged heat spell may affect power demand and increase the risk of wildfires in forested areas. Experts recommend early planning for water conservation and ensuring sufficient electricity supply to meet the surge in cooling requirements.
With summer intensifying, citizens and businesses are urged to stay updated on weather alerts and follow safety guidelines issued by local authorities.
