Amidst the heatwave, health experts have advised people to take precautionary measures to protect themselves from the strokes and to stay indoors amid the coronavirus lockdown.

The heatwave coincides with the last week of Ramadan – when shopping activities are usually at their peak due to Eid-ul-Fitr.

Health experts have warned that people who go out for shopping will be particularly at risk of exposure to the heatwave as vendors have only been allowed to open during daytime due to the COVID-19 lockdown. Additionally, most shoppers in the markets will be observing fasts, which may put them at increased risk of getting dehydrated if precautions are not taken.
