The temperatures in Telangana have dropped to an alarming low, dipping below 10°C for the first time this season. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a warning of a cold wave in the state, leaving residents shivering and health issues on the rise among the people.
The state has been experiencing a sudden drop in temperatures over the past few days, with the mercury level plummeting to 8°C in some areas. The cold wave has brought normal life to a standstill, with people struggling to cope with the harsh weather conditions.
The IMD has warned that the cold wave will continue to prevail in the state for the next few days, with temperatures expected to dip further. The department has advised people to take necessary precautions to protect themselves from the cold, especially vulnerable populations such as the elderly and children.
Health officials have reported an increase in cases of respiratory problems, including bronchitis and pneumonia, among the people. The cold weather has also led to an increase in cases of flu and other viral infections, putting a strain on the healthcare system in the state.
The state government has taken measures to mitigate the impact of the cold wave, including setting up relief camps and distributing blankets and warm clothing to those in need. However, more needs to be done to address the scale of the problem and provide relief to those affected.
The cold wave has also had a significant impact on agriculture in the state, with crops such as wheat and paddy being damaged due to the extreme weather conditions. The state government has promised to provide compensation to farmers who have lost their crops due to the cold wave.
