Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and neighboring states are experiencing a heatwave with temperatures reaching up to 45°C, prompting warnings from the India Meteorological Department. Two-wheeler riders face increased risks of heatstroke due to direct sun exposure and protective gear trapping heat. Experts advise staying hydrated, wearing light clothing, using ventilated helmets, avoiding peak sun hours, and taking breaks to prevent heat-related illnesses. A rain spell is expected to bring relief starting April 26.
