Cold wave will continue in many parts of North India

New Delhi: On Saturday morning, thick fog remained over most of northern India, obscuring the famous Taj Mahal as well.

In the meantime, dense fog covered the National Capital Region, including New Delhi. In the same vein, intense fog also affected cities like Gwalior and Kanpur.

An elderly group was seen gathered over a campfire in Kanpur. “We have trouble getting to work because it’s so cold,” auto driver Raj Kumar told the media report. At the very least, bonfires need to be set up at the roundabouts.

Raj Kumar’s colleague Sunil Kumar Gupta went on to say, “The government is not taking notice of the many issues that are surfacing as a result of the cold. The weather is still frigid. What are our options? We have no power.

A traveler from Bhopal informed the media report that they had been in Kashmir for three to four days during the severe 40-day winter season known as “Chillai Kalan,” which is presently occurring in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir. This place is very frigid. He pointed to a frozen Dal Lake and stated, “It’s -3 degrees Celsius.”

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) reports that on Saturday morning, the temperature in Delhi was 11 degrees Celsius.

At Indira Gandhi International Airport, there were no recorded flight cancellations or diversions. However, the fog caused delays for a number of trains.

Northern India is not the only region experiencing the cold wave. Visuals also showed people sitting around bonfires in Dhenkanal, Odisha, to remain warm.
