Rain deficit persists in nine Ranga Reddy mandals

In Ranga Reddy district, only six out of 27 mandals received excess rainfall this month, while nine mandals are still experiencing a rain deficit.

Farmers had planned their sowing activities expecting a good monsoon, but the prolonged dry spell caused by the El-Nino phenomena delayed these activities.

The district received less rain compared to the same period last year.

However, the weather body predicts more rain in the coming days.
