A 40-year-old man in Delhi succumbed to heat stroke at Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital in Delhi. He was admitted to the Heat Stroke Unit with a body temperature exceeding 107 degrees Fahrenheit. Heatstroke is a critical condition resulting from prolonged high temperatures or intense exercise in hot weather, causing the body s temperature to reach 104 °F (40°C) or higher. Immediate emergency treatment is necessary to prevent severe damage to the brain, heart, kidneys, and muscles, potentially leading to serious complications or death.
It said Delhi is facing an unprecedented heatwave with temperatures hovering around 50 degrees Celsius in some parts for the first time in the city s history.
Delhi's power demand reaches a seasonal high of 6,780 MW as temperatures exceed 40 degrees Celsius, with predictions of crossing 8,000 MW this summer. BSES ensures peak demand is met in various areas.
Recent events involving the remand of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal to ED custody and AAP MP Sanjay Singh s bail grant by the Supreme Court have sparked political drama and allegations of misuse of enforcement agencies. However, it s essential to understand that the law applies equally to all individuals, including politicians. The decision to remand an accused is based on factors like evidence, need for interrogation, and potential tampering with evidence.
