NEW DELHI: Existing seasonal rainfall deficit of 40% will be reduced in July, backed by good rains in the first 7-10 days due to further advance of monsoon in many parts, including Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and some parts of Rajasthan during the next 2-3 days, but overall the rainfall is likely to be ‘below normal’ in most parts of the country during the month, IMD said in its latest forecast on Tuesday.The month is also likely to be warmer than usual as the Met department predicted “above normal” temperatures in many parts of the country.Besides the progress of the monsoon in the remaining parts of the country, the good rains during the first 10 days of the month from Odisha and West Bengal to Gujarat and Maharashtra, covering most parts of central India, can be attributed to the formation of the low-pressure system (LPS) over the Bay of Bengal.“Conditions are favourable for further advance of southwest monsoon into remaining parts of Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh, some more parts of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, entire Daman & Diu, Jammu & Kashmir, most parts of Haryana-Chandigarh-Delhi and Punjab, and some parts of Rajasthan during the next 2-3 days,” said Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, director general, IMD.He underlined that the good rains in the next 7-10 days in July, which normally happen to be the rainiest month of the monsoon season (June-Sept), may help sowing operations, specifically in the ‘monsoon core zone’ – the rain-fed area of the country where farming largely depends on the seasonal rainfall.Noting that the “rainfall over all India (99.5 mm) was fifth lowest June rainfall since 1901”, Mohapatra said, “There was negative impact on rainfall activity over Indian region due to development of El Nino, while the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), which is in neutral phase, could not help to compensate the negative impact of El Nino.” He also flagged that there were no low-pressure systems formed during June.El Nino Southern oscillation (ENSO) and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) are two key factors that govern variation in monsoon rainfall. El Niño – a natural climate pattern in which the surface waters of the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean become warmer than usual – is associated with weak monsoon and harsher summer in India. The IOD – difference in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern parts of the tropical Indian Ocean – helps formation of stronger monsoon winds. The positive IOD invariably soften the impact of strong El Nino.The year 2009 received the lowest June rainfall (87.6 mm) since 1901, followed by 1905 (91.9 mm), 2014 (92.8 mm), 1926 (96.7 mm) and 2026 (99.5 mm). This year, India received the lowest June rainfall after 2014, which was the drought year.Though IOD, which softens the impact of El Nino if turned positive, continues to be in neutral condition as per the IMD’s model, some global models hint at the possibility of it turning positive by the end of Aug and Sept. If that happens, the second half of the monsoon season may get slightly better rainfall. But it may not offset the deficit of June-July.“Currently, neutral IOD conditions are being observed over the Indian Ocean. The model forecast indicates that neutral IOD conditions are likely to persist during the southwest (summer) monsoon season,” said Mohapatra.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Kalyan Banerjee (File photo) NEW DELHI: Kalyan Banerjee of the Mamata Banerjee-led faction of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Tuesday announced that it would move court after Kolkata Police rejected its application to hold the annual July 21 Martyrs’ Day (Shahid Diwas) rally.He told reporters that the faction was discussing an alternative venue instead of the usual Esplanade site but asserted that the programme date would remain unchanged.In addition to rejecting applications from both Trinamool factions, police have imposed a 60-day ban on gatherings across parts of central Kolkata, including the traditional venue of the then-undivided TMC’s annual Martyrs’ Day rally, citing intelligence inputs about possible violent demonstrations that could disrupt public order.The restrictions will come into effect on July 2 and remain in force till August 30 unless withdrawn earlier.”The application we submitted for July 21 has been rejected. We are deliberating on our next course of action and where to hold the meeting, but the date will remain unchanged. We will challenge this in court. It is undemocratic. Such actions are impermissible,” Banerjee said.”The current chief minister is afraid to listen to the opposition. He wants to shut down all democratic protests and rallies. But we will fight back — both in the political arena and in the courts,” he added, referring to BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari, a former Trinamool member.Earlier, the Mamata Banerjee faction had sought permission from the Kolkata Police Commissioner to organise the Shahid Diwas programme in front of Victoria House at Esplanade and requested approval for arrangements from July 19 to July 21, saying it wished to continue the longstanding tradition under the leadership of the former West Bengal chief minister, who founded the TMC in January 1998 after leaving the Congress.The undivided TMC had been observing Shahid Diwas in memory of the 13 Youth Congress workers who were killed after police opened fire on a Mamata Banerjee-led protest march under the state’s Left Front government on July 21, 1993, in Kolkata.This will be the first Martyrs’ Day since the Trinamool lost the assembly elections in April, ending its 15-year rule in West Bengal and triggering a split in the party.(With ANI inputs)Get the latest India news and live updates.
