  • Another bout of thunderstorms hit UP, Bihar and Jharkhand yesterday, leaving 40 dead and many others injured, reports said.

    While 19 deaths were reported from Bihar, Jharkhand accounted for 12 and UP, nine.

    The weather department has predicted good rainfall this year unlike 2017, when over 60% of the country couldn't gain from adequate rainfall.

    "Rainfall was witnessed in many parts of (Kerala) and Lakshadweep. Conditions are conducive for further advancement of clouds," said IMD Regional Director K Santosh.
