The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a heavy rain alert for Lakshadweep as the southwest monsoon remains active over the Arabian Sea. The forecast predicts widespread rainfall, thunderstorms, and strong winds across the islands, with rough sea conditions expected to persist. Authorities are continuously monitoring the weather situation and have urged residents to stay informed through official advisories.

Fishermen have been advised not to venture into the sea until weather conditions improve due to the risk posed by high waves and strong winds. Residents and travelers have also been urged to exercise caution, avoid unnecessary coastal activities, and follow instructions issued by local authorities. Emergency response teams remain on alert to respond promptly to any weather-related incidents during the active monsoon period.
