The Kashmir Valley, famous for its serene lakes and streams, is facing a severe crisis due to an intense heatwave. The entire region is suffering from the relentless heat, exacerbated by a lack of rainfall. The Jhelum River, a lifeline for many, has alarmingly low water levels, grounding iconic houseboats. Large portions of the Jhelum and other water bodies are nearly dry, causing distress to houseboat owners and operators. This unprecedented heatwave has affected all sectors, including agriculture, horticulture, tourism, and education. However, meteorological scientists predict moderate rainfall in the coming days, offering hope for relief to the beleaguered residents.
