The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for Mumbai, Thane, and Raigad districts, indicating potential hot and humid conditions until Thursday. While the city is unlikely to experience heatwave-like conditions, with temperatures hovering around 35 degrees Celsius, the soaring humidity levels will make the week uncomfortable. The alert is attributed to an influx of moisture-laden westerlies.
Meanwhile, in political news, Mushtaq Antulay, former Congress legislator and son-in-law of ex-Maharashtra Chief Minister A.R. Antulay, has joined the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) led by Ajit Pawar. Antulay expressed his decision to join NCP in support of the alliance’s developmental goals.
In a separate incident, Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh filed a police complaint over an alleged deepfake video that surfaced on social media. The video, originating from his recent visit to Varanasi, appears genuine, but the audio is reportedly an AI-generated voice clone of Singh, according to his spokesperson’s statement.
