The India Meteorological Department has forecasted extremely heavy rainfall for September 24 in Bihar, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh, urging residents to take precautions.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) released its daily outlook for September 24, indicating that the three states of Bihar, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh will experience extremely heavy rainfall. Meteorologists attribute the intensity to a deep low‑pressure system moving across the central and eastern parts of the country.
Authorities in the affected regions have been alerted to the possibility of flash floods, water‑logging and landslides, especially in low‑lying and hilly areas. District disaster management teams are on standby, and local administrations have advised people to avoid non‑essential travel and to secure property against water damage.
The forecast comes as the monsoon season approaches its peak, a period historically marked by sporadic but intense downpours. Residents are urged to stay updated through official channels, follow any evacuation orders, and keep emergency kits ready.
IMD will continue to monitor the system and issue updates as the situation evolves, emphasizing that timely preparedness can mitigate loss of life and property.
