Breaking news! 🌞 The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has revealed that Delhi's scorching temperature of 52.9°C registered this week was actually 3°C higher than the actual reading. The all-time high was a result of a sensor malfunction at the Mungeshpur weather station, a densely packed area in Delhi.
Earth Sciences Minister Kiren Rijiju announced on social media platform X that after a thorough investigation, the IMD found a 3°C sensor error. \"Corrective measures are now in place,\" he stated, though he didn't provide a revised temperature figure for Wednesday's heatwave.
The IMD confirmed that the maximum temperature reported by the Mungeshpur station was inaccurate due to the malfunctioning sensor. Stay cool and stay informed! ❄️✨
