According to the latest forecast from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), extremely heavy rain is expected over many states in India for the next few days. People have been asked to stay alert and follow necessary precautions.

Heavy rainfall is likely over the southern states of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana.
