TL;DR Summary

Hundreds of residents in Delhi have been evacuated as the water level of the Yamuna river reaches a 45-year high, surpassing the "danger mark." Record rainfall in the region has caused a flood-like situation, prompting people to move to relief camps. At least 88 people have died in Himachal Pradesh due to heavy rains. The monsoon season, while crucial for India, often leads to deaths and property damage. Climate change is believed to be a contributing factor to the increased frequency of extreme weather events in the country.
