The Government has issued a rain and thunderstorm alert across India, with special emphasis on the Northeast as the monsoon continues to withdraw.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a rain and thunderstorm alert covering the entire country as the monsoon season continues to retreat.
The alert specifically highlights the Northeast region, where heavy rainfall and potential flooding are expected due to the lingering monsoon trough.
Officials urge residents in affected areas to stay updated through local weather bulletins and to take precautionary measures against sudden downpours.
The government has advised that the alert remains in force until the monsoon front moves further north, which could bring additional rainfall to the plains.
