Heat wave is here; beat it!

With temperatures in our country crossing 40 degrees, the heat wave is at its harshest. Hospitals have already started recording cases of heat stroke, heat cramps and heat exhaustion in several parts of our country. The worst affected are children, infants and the elderly.
