Intense Heatwave Grips Jharkhand with Temperatures Soaring Above 43 Degrees Celsius
A yellow alert for heatstroke has been issued for the Kolhan region from April 19 to 21, urging residents to take special precautions in the face of the blistering heat. Areas like Santal Parganas and Kolhan region are advised to be particularly mindful of the hot weather conditions.
In other news, a CRPF constable facing arrest warrants found relief as a court hearing provided respite after the constable took necessary leave. Additionally, to manage overcrowding, a duplicate Shipra Express will be operational between Indore and Howrah on April 19 and 21.
Former Chief Minister Hemant Soren and his family have received a stay order in a defamation case, allowing them some legal protection. However, the Jharkhand High Court has raised concerns about large-scale opium cultivation in the Khunti district, emphasizing the need to address this issue in the tribal region.
On a different note, the High Court rejected a plea for compensation to the family members of an unlicensed vendor who tragically passed away during a legal case.
As the heatwave alert continues in Jamshedpur, where a maximum temperature of 41.2 degrees is expected, the possibility of intense heat in Purvi Singhbhum, Pashchimi Singhbhum, and Saraikela-Kharsawan remains high. Unfortunately, it seems like people in Jharkhand may not receive relief from the scorching temperatures anytime soon, as the heatwave conditions are expected to persist.
The increase in temperature is attributed to the northwesterly winds, exacerbating the already harsh weather conditions. As the heatwave continues to grip Jharkhand, it’s crucial for everyone to take necessary precautions to stay safe and cool during this challenging time. Stay hydrated, avoid unnecessary outdoor activities, and look out for one another in the heat. Stay safe, Jharkhand!
