Karnataka Faces Rainfall Deficit Amid Shifting Monsoon Patterns
Karnataka has received 29% less rainfall than normal for the Southwest monsoon season. While the first four days of August saw a surplus of 39% rainfall compared to the average, this has not compensated for the overall deficit. Concerns are rising about potential drought-like conditions if the monsoon pattern does not improve in the next ten days, with 14 states reportedly facing significant rainfall shortages.
