Deadly Heatwave Ravages Northern India, Claims Over 100 Lives

At least 54 people died in Uttar Pradesh's Ballia district and 45 in neighboring Bihar due to a heat wave that hit the region. The Indian Meteorological Department issued a red alert warning for extreme heat in some regions of the country, including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The government is investigating the cause of the deaths, and while some are related to old age, others have different reasons. The heat wave is expected to continue in some regions, while parts of India's northeastern Assam state are reeling under floods triggered by heavy rains.
