In its warning, NDMA stressed the significance of avoiding heat-related illnesses by taking the necessary safeguards. The official urged people to be alert and drink more water to combat the heat stress.
In order to stay hydrated, it advised avoiding carbonated drinks and instead drinking lemon water and oral rehydration solution (ORS).
During the hottest parts of the day, people were urged to protect themselves from the sun by staying indoors, keeping their heads covered, and wearing light, breathable clothing.
The National Drought Mitigation Association (NDMA) recommended pouring cool water over the heads of heat-related fainting victims.
