The India Meteorological Department has warned of widespread heavy rainfall for Sunday across Delhi‑NCR, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather alert indicating that large parts of Delhi‑NCR, the hilly state of Uttarakhand and the plains of Uttar Pradesh will experience heavy rain on Sunday. The forecast calls for intermittent downpours that could last for several hours, with the possibility of localized flooding in low‑lying areas.
Authorities have advised residents to stay alert, avoid unnecessary travel and keep emergency kits ready. Urban centres such as Delhi and Lucknow may see water‑logging on roads, potentially disrupting traffic and public transport services.
The IMD has also cautioned that the rain could trigger landslides in vulnerable zones of Uttarakhand, urging people in hill districts to remain vigilant and follow local advisories. Emergency services are on standby to respond to any incidents arising from the weather event.
