Monsoon set to end with 15% rainfall deficit, recovery unlikely

India's monsoon season is drawing to a close with approximately 10 days remaining, but the country faces a significant rainfall shortfall. The nation currently stands at a 15% deficit in monsoon precipitation compared to the long-term average.

With the season nearing its end, meteorological experts indicate that a substantial recovery in rainfall is unlikely in the remaining period. This shortfall may have implications for agricultural output and water availability across the country.
