The ravaging effects of climate change
Many villages and farmlands around the Yamuna river were submerged in Delhi due to heavy rainfall and floods. Displaced residents in Mayur Vihar, New Delhi were seen transferring their household essentials through ladders to climb on an overpass under construction on 12 July 2023. Almost 35,000 people evacuated their homes with over 5,000 of them staying in relief camps and 6 people lost their lives. In recent years, North India has experienced extreme changes in weather patterns, including scorching heat hitting record highs and heavy floods in monsoon.
