The state of Rajasthan after battling intense heatwave conditions and sky-high temperatures has finally seen a few good spells of rain. Rain gods have decided to bestow some kindness over many areas of the state with good showers.
For the past few days, western parts of Rajasthan have been witnessing good rains. This increase in rains over West and Southwest Rajasthan is due to the persisting cyclonic circulation over Southwest Rajasthan and adjoining Kutch.
