The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has come out with the heat index for different regions of the country on the basis of recent tests.
The heat index launched by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) aims to provide information on the effect of humidity on high temperatures. It calculates a "feel-like" temperature for humans, which shows how the weather conditions can cause discomfort.
This was announced by Union Earth Sciences Minister Kiren Rijiju.
The heat index is designed to provide general guidance and information about the level of discomfort caused by high temperatures in the hot regions of India.
By releasing the Heat Index, the IMD aims to provide valuable insights into heat-related conditions to help people better cope with extreme temperatures.
