The state of Madhya Pradesh has been experiencing good spells of rain and thundershower activities for the last many days now. The central and western areas of the state, in particular, are experiencing moderate to heavy rains.
Despite good rains, West Madhya Pradesh is rain deficient by 3% while East Madhya Pradesh by 20% until July 27.
