July's Above-Normal Rain Reduces Deficit To 12%': Centre Suggests El Nino Might Not Cut Rainfall
New Delhi: The Centre on Tuesday said that the rainfall deficit has come down to 12 per cent, with the first week of July recording above-normal monsoon activity, and asserted that an El Niño year may not necessarily lead to below-normal rainfall.
The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) said that in the context of the progress of the kharif season and the possible impact of El Niño on other sectors of the economy, a high-level review meeting was held under the chairmanship of Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister, PK Mishra, to review and take stock of the preparedness measures undertaken in this regard
