Ways to keep yourself safe in summer

The summer season is increasing rapidly, and temperatures have reached 45 degrees Celsius at many places. The India Meteorological Department has warned that the temperature may increase further in the coming days. In such a situation, it is very important to take care of your health. Keeping yourself safe in the scorching heat is no less than a challenge.
