A warning has been issued by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) about a strengthening El Niño. This could reduce rainfall across parts of the Indian subcontinent in the coming months. There might be an increasing pressure on agriculture, water availability, and electricity generation, particularly in regions already experiencing below-average rainfall, owing to the weaker monsoon conditions, as alerted by the scientists. The Governments are urged to strengthen water conservation efforts and prepare contingency plans for farmers. The exact impact will depend on evolving weather conditions. However, the advisory highlights the growing influence of climate variability on food security and economic stability across South Asia.
