Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath announced that the state government has made extensive arrangements to protect residents from the anticipated heatwave. He urged citizens to take precautions, especially for vulnerable groups like children and the elderly. The government is preparing for peak electricity demand of approximately 34,500 MegaWatt, ensuring that all thermal power plants operate at full capacity. Measures include providing free drinking water at tehsils, farms, hospitals, and anganwadi centres, as well as organizing health check-up camps at industrial and construction sites. Additionally, the government is taking steps to protect livestock and wildlife through the implementation of heat action plans in zoos and sanctuaries. The India Meteorological Department has warned of heatwave conditions in isolated areas of Uttar Pradesh, with temperatures expected to rise above 40 degrees Celsius due to dry westerly winds. Adityanath emphasized the importance of community responsibility during this challenging season.
