Critics and some on social media question why the current government appears to be avoiding naming the US in official statements even when Indian citizens died in US action.

  India Likely to Face a Super El Niño in 2026, Bringing Severe Heatwaves and Extreme Heat??? where heat dome could dovelop ??? What is Super El Niño? El Niño can be understood in simple terms like this: El Niño is a climate pattern. Under normal conditions, the waters of the Pacific Ocean remain relatively cool and winds move in their usual direction. This helps maintain normal weather conditions in many countries around the world. However, when the ocean water suddenly becomes unusually warm, it changes global atmospheric circulation patterns. As a result, hot air gets trapped over certain regions, increasing environmental temperatures and causing heatwaves. This imbalance in weather patterns is called El Niño. Scientists have indicated the possibility of El Niño conditions developing again in 2026 . Due to this: Severe and continuous heatwaves may occur The monsoon may weaken Rainfall may decrease The risk of severe drought may increase What is a Heat Dome? Th...
