Temperatures in India's capital soared to a record-high 49.9 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, according to the government's weather bureau.
The India Meteorological Department reported \"severe heat-wave conditions,\" recording the extreme temperatures at two Delhi suburbs stations in Narela and Mungeshpur.
Last year, in May 2022, parts of Delhi reached 49.2 degrees Celsius, as reported by Indian media. The spike in temperatures underscores the growing concern over climate change and its impact on urban areas.
