Prime Minister Modi is expected to hold a review meeting on the post-cyclone situation, focusing particularly on the northeastern states. This session is likely to assess the damage caused by the recent cyclone ‘Remal’, coordinate relief efforts, and plan for the long-term rehabilitation of the affected areas.
Following this, the prime minister will turn his attention to the ongoing heatwave affecting large parts of the country.
PM Modi will also chair a meeting to finalise the preparations to celebrate World Environment Day, an annual event observed on June 5. World Environment Day was established by the United Nations in 1972 during the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment. Its purpose is to raise awareness and promote actions for the protection of the environment. This year's theme is ‘land restoration, desertification and drought resilience’, with Saudi Arabia being the host country, chosen to highlight global and local efforts.
