However, the NMC health department is considering these deaths as suspected cases of heat stroke. Officials have mentioned that they will confirm the cause of death once they receive the post-mortem report.

Nagpur has experienced temperatures ranging from 42 to 43 degrees Celsius over the past four days. Consequently, there is a strong emphasis on taking special precautions when venturing outdoors during daylight hours.
