Spring did not show up this year, but there has been fresh snowfall in April and May in some of the Himalayan states. Heatwaves are rising, lasting up to 36 days a year! But the monsoon rainfall over the Indo-Gangetic plains has reduced. India annually loses 101 billion work hours, equivalent to about 23 million jobs, due to the heat stress.
