India has a special season every year when it rains a lot, called the monsoon.

Farmers and many people depend on this rain.

A weather office in India watches the monsoon carefully.

That office says the rain will become lighter soon.

Over the next two weeks, most parts of India will see less rain.

Places in the west and the south will notice the biggest change.

But some places in the east and the north will still get rain.

That could be helpful for farming there.

The weather office shared this news through a spokesperson who did not give their name.

We will have to wait and see what the weather actually does.
