IMD predicts below-normal monsoon rainfall for India in 2026

New Delhi, May 29:The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said the country is likely to receive below-normal southwest monsoon rainfall during the June-September season this year, while warning of above-normal heatwave days in several states during June. In its updated long-range forecast issued by the Ministry of Earth Sciences, the IMD said the monsoon seasonal rainfall during 2026 is likely to be around 90 per cent of the Long Period Average (LPA), with a model error margin of plus or minus 4 percent. The LPA for the monsoon season based on 1971-2020 data is 87 cm. According to the forecast, there is an 84 per cent probability of below-normal or deficient rainfall across the country during the monsoon season. The IMD said below-normal rainfall is most likely over most parts of the country, except some areas of northwest and northeast India, eastern parts of peninsular India and adjoining east-central regions, where normal to above-normal rainfall is expected. The weather agency warned that below-normal rainfall may create challenges for agriculture, drinking water supply, hydropower generation and ecosystem sustainability. It may also increase the risks of drought and heat stress in several regions. For June 2026, rainfall across the country is also expected to remain below normal at less than 92 percent of the Long Period Average. However, some parts of northwest and northeast India and several areas of south peninsular India are likely to receive normal to above-normal rainfall. The IMD further said above-normal heatwave days are expected during June over many parts of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Isolated regions of Maharashtra, Telangana, Himachal Pradesh and Tamil Nadu are also likely to witness more heatwave days than usual. However, Rajasthan and Jharkhand are expected to see below-normal heatwave days during the month. The Ministry of Earth Sciences said above-normal maximum and minimum temperatures are likely over most parts of the country during June. The IMD noted that neutral El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) conditions over the equatorial Pacific are currently transitioning towards El Nino conditions, which are likely to develop during the southwest monsoon season. Neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) conditions are expected to continue during the monsoon period. The weather office advised state governments and district administrations to take necessary preparedness measures to deal with possible heatwave conditions, including ensuring safe drinking water, operational cooling shelters and stronger health surveillance systems. The IMD also urged people to remain hydrated, avoid exposure during peak afternoon hours and take special care of vulnerable individuals, including children, elderly people and outdoor workers. The department said it will issue the forecast for July rainfall in the last week of June 2026.

who-is-v-mohana-the-senior-advocate-recommended-as-a-supreme-court-judge

In a significant move to fill vacancies, the Supreme Court Collegium on Wednesday recommended the appointment of senior advocate V. Mohana to the rank of a judge at the apex court. If appointed, the senior advocate will become the second woman from Tamil Nadu to reach the post after Justice R. Banumathi, and the second from the Bar after Justice Indu Malhotra. Other judges who were recommended for the same post includeJustice Sheel Nagu, Chief Justice of the Punjab and Haryana High Court; Justice Shree Chandrashekhar, Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court; Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva, Chief Justice of the Madhya Pradesh High Court; and Justice Arun Palli, Chief Justice of the Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh High Court. Designated as a senior advocate in the Supreme Court in April 2015, Mohana has worked with prolific faces in the legal and political community, such as Kapil Sibal, K.K. Venugopal, P. Chidambaram, Arun Jaitley, and T. Andhyarujina, among others, and was also a panel lawyer for the Government of India. The path to the Supreme Court V. Mohana, who studied law at the Coimbatore Law College, graduated in 1988 from what was India's first-ever batch of the five-year integrated law course, introduced in 1983. After graduation, she continued an internshipthat she had begun during her college educationin the office ofM. Panchapakesan, working in Tamil Nadu's trial courts till 1992, when she decided to move to Delhi to work under Justice Indu Malhotra, who was then an advocate-on-record. It was difficult for women in those days to get cases of their own, especially in small cities ...Delhi provides lots of opportunities, definitely better than any other city. Because you have trial courts, high court, administrative tribunal, MRTP commission (now Competition Commission, Competition Appellate Tribunal), CESTAT, Army Tribunal, etc. and of course the Honble Supreme Court of India. So there is a varied practice and scope for every field, she recounted in a 2015 interview with Superlawyer . She then moved to the chambers of Senior Advocate C.S. Vaidyanathan, where she worked in several cases widely reported between 1992 and 1996, such as the Amratlal Prajivandas case, McDowell case, and the Jain commission case after the death of Rajiv Gandhi. Over the years, V. Mohana moved up the ladder, earning her a role in theNational Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission back when it was newly formed, as well as additional roles as a Supreme Court mediator and an honorary editor for the Supreme Court Reports (SCR) before the SCR got its own editors. Most importantly, she was a panel lawyer for the apex court's legal services committee, working in a lot of cases between 1996 and 2013, before she was elevated to her present position on April 23, 2015. People have started recognising women lawyers and their good work. But there should be more designations and elevations from the womens section.

Sudhir Jakhar, a lawyer from Haryanas Panipat, who claims to be the national convener of the days-old outfit, wants to register the collective in his name, separately from its founder, Abhijeet Dipke, according to a Hindustan Times report. The report stated that Jakhar submitted the application, seeking registration of the outfit under Section 29A of the Representation of the People Act. According to Jakhar, he decided to take this step after Dipke declined to come to India to register the party. Dipke declined to come to India and convert this movement into an actual ground-level political party. Seeing the anger among the youth and the scale of what has been built, we felt that if someone else registered the name first and misused it, the entire movement would be lost. We decided to move ahead ourselves to ensure that does not happen, Jakhar was quoted as saying. The HT report said the objectives of the party, which Jakhar differs from the original demands of the CJP. The original CJP 'manifesto' has five demands: No post-retirement rewards for chief justices, election Commissioners must face action under UAPA if legitimate votes are deleted from the electoral rolls, half of all Parliamentary seats and Cabinet positions must be reserved for women, media licences of outlets owned by corporate conglomerates must be revoked to ensure independent journalism, and MLAs and MPs who switch parties after winning elections must be banned from contesting any election for 20 years. However, the outfit that Jakhar seeks to register has objectives such as transparency, communal harmony, peaceful democratic reforms, environmental protection, animal welfare, social audit of governance, legal awareness, and whistleblower protection. The development came even as Dipke moved the Delhi High Court against the blocking of the outfit's X account. The collective that built its popularity, among other things, by mocking the ways of Indian politics and politicians who switch sides at a whim, may be headed to an ownership battle and ideological splits usually reserved for full-fledged political parties.

NEEV Foundation Launches 'Iss Garmi, Farq Nazar Aayega' Summer Relief Campaign Across Six States

With temperatures breaching 45°C across large parts of India, NEEV Foundation has mounted a large-scale summer relief campaign, “ Iss Garmi, Farq Nazar Aayega ,” targeting outdoor workers, the general public, stray animals and birds bearing the brunt of this season’s extreme heat. The initiative is being rolled out across six states including Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Maharashtra.   NEEV Foundation launches ‘Iss Garmi, Farq Nazar Aayega’ summer relief campaign across six states NEEV Foundation is deploying 60 relief vans to distribute clean, cold drinking water at high-footfall public areas and directly to those working long hours in the open, including traffic police personnel, delivery executives, construction workers, street vendors and autorickshaw drivers. Alongside water, the vans will distribute ORS pouches and protective caps to counter heat exposure and help replenish minerals lost to excessive perspiration. Acknowledging that the crisis extends beyond human welfare, the Foundation has installed water tanks for stray animals and placed bird feeders and water trays across multiple locations. The campaign is anchored in a simple idea of access and empathy. As the foundation describes it: “The thirsty always come to the well. This summer, we decided to take the well to the thirsty.” Speaking on the initiative, Mr. Vivek Patni, Director – Wonder Cement and Founder of Neev Foundation said, “India’s summers are becoming increasingly harsh for people who spend most of their day outdoors. Through this campaign, we wanted to create immediate, accessible relief for those who keep our cities functioning despite extreme weather conditions. Sometimes the most meaningful interventions are also the simplest, whether it is offering a glass of water, a moment of shade or basic support during difficult conditions .” He added, “ NEEV was founded on the belief that social responsibility begins with showing up for people when they need support the most. We hope this campaign also encourages citizens to participate in small acts of care, from keeping water outside homes for birds and stray animals to supporting delivery personnel and outdoor workers during peak summer hours. Collective action often begins with individual awareness. Sometimes, a small beginning brings a big change and starts a revolution .” The campaign carries a deliberate public mobilisation intent, seeking to deepen community participation in heat relief at a time when rising temperatures are emerging as a sustained challenge across urban and rural India. The seasonal effort is part of a broader development mandate. NEEV Foundation’s Rural Development Centre in Nimbahera anchors its long-term work, which spans skill development for women under the Hunar programme, community infrastructure through Sanrachna, educational support under Udaan, healthcare outreach through Arogyam and sustainability initiatives under Eco Green.

will-haryana-save-delhi-national-capital-faces-grim-water-crisis-as-yamuna-dries-up

The national capital is reeling under an intense water crisis, leaving many parts of Delhi, especially Sultanpuri, Rohini, and Kirari, dry and thirsty. The situation is such that the Wazirabad barrage, upstream of the Yamuna, has been reduced to small rivulets. Following the crisis, the state has sought help from the Haryana government. The Delhi government wants Haryana to provide additional water for the next four weeks or else the water supply could be severely disrupted, according to reports. Delhi is receiving approximately 1,050 cusecs of water from the Haryana, Bhakra, and Yamuna systems. Officials say that if an additional 250 cusecs of water is received, the current crisis could be significantly alleviated. A month ago, the Delhi government made serious efforts to obtain 151 cusecs of water from Haryana. In a meeting held in Chandigarh in the first week of March between the officials of Delhi Jal Board and Haryana Irrigation Department, the Jal Board demanded an additional 100 cusecs of water, in derogation of the May 1994 water-sharing agreement, and 51 cusecs of water from its irrigation quota. Water level plunges The water level at the Wazirabad reservoir plunged to 668.7 feet on Monday, while 674.5 feet is required for normal operation, according to the Indian Express. The water level at many points of the 500 m channel is only knee-high in some places, exposing sand beds. It is from the barrage that water is being supplied to the two largest plants in the city Wazirabad and Chandrawal. Of this, the water treatment at the Wazirabad plant has dropped by 34 per cent, while other plants in the capital are also operating at approximately 10 per cent less capacity. Only the Sonia Vihar and Bhagirathi plants are currently operating normally. The water crisis is deepening in Sultanpuri, Rohini, and Kirari, with some areas reporting water supply disruption for the past two days . According to local media reports, Ranikheda and Rasulpur villages, along with seven surrounding colonies, have been without water for two days.

dera-chief-ram-rahim-walks-out-of-jail-on-parole-for-16th-time-since-conviction

Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, serving a 20-year sentence for the rape of two women disciples, has been released once again from Rohtaks Sunaria jail after being granted a 30-day parole. Singh was released around 6:34 am under tight security and will remain at the Dera headquarters in Sirsa during the parole period, his counsel Jitender Khurana said. He is barred from holding physical gatherings with followers at the Dera but is permitted to address them virtually. He has got the parole today. It has been given by the competent authority of the state. He has been granted parole for 30 days, Khurana said. This marks the 16th time the self-styled godman has been released from prison since his conviction in 2017. The latest parole comes months after a similar release in January. Prior to that, he was out on a 40-day parole in August 2025, a 21-day furlough in April 2025, and a 30-day parole in January 2025 ahead of the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections. He was also granted a 20-day parole on October 1, 2024, shortly before the Haryana Assembly polls, a 21-day furlough in August 2024, and a three-week furlough in February 2022, just ahead of the Punjab Assembly elections. The repeated paroles granted to the Dera chief have drawn criticism from several Sikh organisations, including the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee. In March, the Punjab and Haryana High Court acquitted Singh in a 2002 journalist murder case, overturning a conviction handed down by a special CBI court. In May 2024, the High Court also set aside another CBI court verdict and acquitted him and four others in the 2002 murder of the sects former manager, Ranjit Singh.

fall-of-rjd-and-congress-in-bihar-what-remains-of-the-opposition-now

The principal opposition party in Bihar, Rashtriya Janata Dal, went from 81 legislators in 2021 in the Assembly to just 25 in the 2025 Assembly elections, a decline of more than 65 per cent in its strength. The Indian National Congress too suffered a similar slide, shrinking from 19 MLAs to six. The reduced numbers have not only weakened their political standing but also deepened resentment within their ranks. According to political observers, both camps are struggling more with their internal issues than with effectively occupying the opposition space. This has created a vacuum within Bihars Opposition politics. Key leaders at the helm in both the RJD and Congress reportedly do not hold a high opinion of each other, further suggesting a freeze in ties. That makes a collective push against the ruling alliance difficult, especially after the NDAs massive mandate of 202 seats in the 243-member assembly. We have been part of the RJD-led coalition for the past few decades and we dont have a good experience with them, politically as well as electorally. We have lost elections with them and lost our space too. There seemingly has been an informal decoupling, a former Congress MLA said. However, neither side has officially indicated any break in the alliance. With the RJD weakened, some Congress leaders believe this was the right moment for the grand old party to attempt a revival and tap into the emerging vacuum. But the Congress leadership in the state has shown little sign of organisational rebuilding or political aggression that could signal a recovery. Even the BJP-led government in the state sees the Opposition as an incapacitated group, which, according to leaders, has also contributed to the BJP keeping a relatively low profile on its communal politics. It was expected that after the BJP came back, there could be communal posturing, but till now there hasnt been anything like that, a Congress leader said. Earlier, they could not have done it because the BJP was under the leadership of Nitish Kumar and there were direct instructions against any communal activities. While the RJDs more than two decades out of power as the principal opposition party has infused hopelessness among sections of its cadre, the Congress faced a different crisis after the 2025 Assembly elections. A large section of party workers expressed dissatisfaction with the state leadership over ticket distribution, alleging that preference was given to new entrants while old-timers were sidelined. The Congress has also not taken any action against the three cross-voters in the Rajya Sabha elections, unlike in states such as Odisha and Haryana where cross-voting legislators were suspended. Leaders in the state believe disciplinary action is unlikely, as the three MLAs constitute nearly half of the partys current Assembly strength.
