Supreme Court Seeks Response on Heatwave Guidelines

Supreme Court Seeks Response on Heatwave Guidelines

The Supreme Court in India wants the government to explain how it's dealing with dangerous heatwaves.

Last year, hundreds of people died because of the heat.

An environment activist is asking the court to make sure the government follows its own heatwave rules.

These rules are meant to help people stay safe, like providing warnings and help lines.

The court is now waiting to hear back from the government about what they are doing to address the situation and protect people from the extreme heat.
