NEW DELHI : The Indian Meteorological department (IMD) on Wednesday said that heavy rainfall is likely to occur over Gangetic West Bengal on 22 June, over Vidarbha on 23 and 24 June, over Bihar during 23-26 June, Jharkhand on 24 and 25 June and over Odisha, Chhattisgarh during 22-26 June.
As the southwest monsoon covers most parts of India, several states are likely to receive very heavy rainfall for the next 4 days.
The IMD had earlier predicted cloudy skies and light rainfall for national capital Delhi as the minimum temperatures settled for 24.3 degrees Celsius on Wednesday.
The predictions come as Jammu and Kashmir reels from landslides, flash floods and overflowing Chenab and Tawi river. Several schools have been shut for the same.
In the Northeastern part of India, Silchar has been inundated with floods, as people row their way through the city.
