Scientists are closely tracking the development of a powerful El Nino weather pattern that could significantly affect India in the coming months. The climate event, driven by warming waters in the Pacific Ocean, has the potential to weaken the southwest monsoon and trigger widespread impacts on agriculture, water supplies and electricity demand. Experts warn that reduced rainfall and higher temperatures could hurt crop production, push up food prices and increase pressure on power grids as cooling demand rises. Global agencies are also monitoring possible disruptions to shipping and supply chains linked to the changing weather pattern. (PC: NDTV)
