Climate Change and El Niño Impact India's Monsoon and Economic Sectors
India faces complex monsoon challenges as a deficient monsoon warning highlights risks to 315 districts, threatening agricultural yields, food inflation, and rural incomes. The El Niño phenomenon, traditionally a reliable monsoon predictor, has become less certain due to climate change, causing erratic rainfall patterns with floods in some regions and drought in others. These disruptions affect multiple sectors, including energy, manufacturing, and supply chains, emphasizing the need for integrated climate resilience strategies across the economy.
