A 40-year-old man from Darbhanga, Bihar, passed away yesterday at the Ram Manohar Lohia hospital in Delhi, following a heatstroke he sustained during the city's record-breaking heatwave. Late on Monday night, the man was admitted to the hospital.

He had a high fever and lived in a room without a fan or cooler, according to the doctor who treated him. According to the doctor, the body temperature exceeded 107 degrees Celsius, which is almost 10 degrees higher than usual. This summer's first heat-stroke fatality in Delhi has been documented.

The highest temperature ever recorded by any weather station in the nation was 52.9 degrees Celsius, which was reported at the Mungeshpur weather station on the outskirts of the city. The weather bureau is currently looking into whether a local factor or a sensor mistake caused the record reading at the Mungeshpur station.
