With temperatures continuing to rise across several parts of India, the Ministry of AYUSH and the Director General of Health Services have issued an important public health advisory to help people protect themselves during ongoing heatwave conditions.
The warning comes as many regions experience dangerously high daytime temperatures, increasing the risk of dehydration, heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Health experts say prolonged exposure to extreme heat can seriously affect the body, especially among children, older adults, outdoor workers and people with existing medical conditions.
