It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. The situation has become uncontrollable. It is possible to lose millions of jobs. The food crisis will increase, in fact, it will be impossible to live in some areas of the land.

Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh have at least 3 cities and areas where the temperature is above 4 degrees. The temperature in Delhi has been between 4 and 5 degrees. It has also broken records in Uttarakhand and Haridwar, where temperatures have reached 4.5 degrees Celsius.

The meteorological department announces a 'heatwave' when temperatures in the plains rise above 40 degrees Celsius, in coastal areas above 4 degrees Celsius and in mountainous areas above 40 degrees Celsius. Different places have different temperatures. But in any place, if it rises above the average of 2.5 to 4.5 degrees Celsius, a 'heat wave' is declared.

According to the Center for Science and Environment (CSE), the heatwave is three times higher than last year.

This increases the heat wave mortality. Between 19 and 2021, more than 15,000 deaths were caused by heatwave alone. Out of more than three and a half thousand deaths between 2015 and 2016, only 2,091 deaths have been reported in 2016 alone.
