A heatwave intensified the oppressive conditions, exacerbated by high humidity. This prolonged exposure poses significant health risks, with monsoon rains still delayed, offering little immediate relief to the capital’s residents. Delhi sweltered under extreme heat stress, with ‘feels like’ temperatures soaring past 50 degrees Celsius and night temperatures hitting a two-year high for June.
