More impact in these divisions
According to the Meteorological Department, most places in Kota, Jaipur, Bharatpur, Ajmer, Udaipur, Jodhpur, and Bikaner divisions will receive rain until July 26.
Heavy rain is expected in many places and very heavy rain in one or two places. The impact of the rain is expected to be greatest in eastern and south-eastern Rajasthan.
What is the reason?
Due to the active cyclonic circulation over north-eastern Rajasthan and the monsoon trough line passing through the state, continuous moisture is being received from the Bay of Bengal.
Due to this effect, rain activities are likely to continue in the coming days. This spell of rain is expected to benefit the Kharif crops.
