The uneven monsoon has already caused severe flooding and landslides in Kerala, where 26 people have died in monsoon-related incidents as of early August. The development of a super El Nino could exacerbate these conditions, increasing the likelihood of both droughts and extreme rainfall events. This could have significant implications for agriculture, water resources, and infrastructure across India. The risk of localised disasters, such as the recent landslide in Poonjar, Kottayam, remains high in vulnerable areas.
