• The south-west monsoon is expected to withdraw from Madhya Pradesh within the next two to three days, marking the end of the monsoon season in the state.
• According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), light rainfall may persist in some districts due to residual humidity, but heavy rain is unlikely.

Impact & Risks

The uneven rainfall distribution has left 30 districts in Madhya Pradesh with deficits, potentially affecting agricultural activities and water resources in these areas. Western Madhya Pradesh, in particular, experienced significant deficits, with some districts recording up to 51% less rainfall than average. While light showers may continue in some eastern districts, the withdrawal of the monsoon signals a shift to predominantly dry weather, which could impact crop yields and water availability in deficit regions.
