India's capital, Delhi, has recorded its highest-ever temperature, reaching a scorching 49.9 degrees Celsius (121.8 Fahrenheit) amid a severe heatwave affecting the region.
This unprecedented heat has led to widespread water shortages, with the local government imposing water rationing to manage the crisis. Areas across Delhi are struggling with varying levels of water access, with some localities having no water at all. The heatwave, which has persisted for weeks, is causing not only discomfort but also increasing cases of heat strokes among the population.
Authorities are on high alert, warning of the health risks associated with such extreme temperatures and the potential for further water scarcity if the heatwave continues.
