The monsoon has once again picked up pace across North India. States like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, and Himachal Pradesh are witnessing a fresh spell of rainfall. In Delhi-NCR, overcast skies helped keep temperatures in check on Sunday, but the high humidity made conditions quite uncomfortable.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), light to moderate rainfall is expected to begin in Delhi starting Monday. Intermittent showers are likely to continue throughout the week. Heavy rain alerts have been issued for areas such as Laxmi Nagar, Patparganj, Anand Vihar, and parts of North, South, and West Delhi. This could bring much-needed relief from the prevailing humidity.
