India is bracing for another summer of prolonged and deadly heatwaves, as its weather office warns of above-normal temperatures and significantly more days of extreme heat in many parts of the country from April to June.
This year, states like Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Odisha could see up to 11 days of heatwaves, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) said. Heatwave days are defined as prolonged periods of exceptionally hot weather.
