The southwest monsoon is set to advance further into parts of the North Arabian Sea, Gujarat, the remaining areas of Haryana and Punjab and more parts of Rajasthan over the next four days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said on Saturday.

In its daily forecast, the IMD said isolated extremely heavy rainfall is likely over Konkan and the Gujarat region between July 4-7, Madhya Maharashtra between July 4-6, Saurashtra and Odisha on July 4-5 and West Madhya Pradesh on Saturday.

The department said a “well-marked low-pressure area lay over the northwest Bay of Bengal”.

“Under its influence, the monsoon is likely to continue in an active phase over the central parts of the country during the next four-five days,” the IMD said.

THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist of the time. The newspaper is run by a five-member Trust, which is chaired by Shri N N Vohra, former Governor of J&K State (2008-2018); as well as Justice S S Sodhi, former Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court; Shri Gurbachan Jagat, former Governor of Manipur; Lt Gen. Shamsher Singh Mehta, former Western Army Commander; Shri Paramjit Singh Patwalia, Senior Advocate in the Supreme Court.

THE TRIBUNE is free, objective, and independent. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language, are the hallmarks of the paper.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
