The weather department warns of heavy rainfall in 31 Uttar Pradesh districts, likely continuing until 13 August.

The IMD has issued a forecast predicting heavy to very heavy rainfall across several regions of India over the next 4-5 days.

On Thursday, parts of Delhi-NCR experienced rain providing much-needed relief from the prevailing hot and humid conditions.

The flow rate at the barrage is 352 cusecs, but heavy rainfall in the catchment areas increases the discharge.
