Mumbai is experiencing severe heat this summer, with temperatures fluctuating between 33 and 35 degrees Celsius and high humidity levels. Workers exposed to these conditions, including construction laborers, traffic police, and gig workers, report feeling drained and exhausted. The India Meteorological Department emphasizes the importance of hydration and avoiding prolonged exposure to heat, especially for vulnerable groups. Healthcare professionals are seeing a rise in symptoms such as headaches and fatigue among those affected. To assist informal workers, the NGO Jan Sahas has introduced a multi-peril insurance product, which has helped over 1,308 workers receive financial aid when heat stress thresholds are exceeded. This initiative provides a payout of ₹2,500 per individual, offering some relief as the city grapples with extreme weather. Workers like Shankar Pawar and Ganesh Chaugule share their struggles, highlighting the challenges of staying hydrated and working under the relentless sun. Community support is also evident, with residents offering refreshments to health workers on census duty.
