Heat wave frequency across core heat wave zone comprising Punjab, Haryana increased by 0.1 days per decade
India’s summers are becoming dangerously hotter and more humid, with heatwaves increasing in frequency and duration. Rising night-time temperatures, coupled with higher humidity, are exacerbating heat stress, making it increasingly difficult to escape the heat. This trend, driven by human-caused climate change, poses significant public health and economic challenges.
