Raichur & NCR Summer

Raichur is a little known city in Vast India but is well known in Karnataka,one of the most economically developed state in India. Raichur is famous for couple of things like it's No 1 Tractor selling point in India,Thermal plant and vast irrigated paddy fields.

Raichur is also notorious for it's hot climate. 38-40 degrees is common in Raichur while in the southern cities of karnataka enjoyed favourable summer with temperatures not exceeding 36. When i came to Gurgaon in Jan end it was the most favoured time with winter getting over. I was told then that it's very difficult to cope with Sun here during May-June. Being from Raichur, i thought it's not a big deal. Sun touched 40-42 degrees in summer here. I believed extra 2-3 degrees is not that difficult to cope up, but was proved wrong. There is a huge diff between these 2 places apart from the temp difference. The heat waves here will make going out or walking in the sun extremely difficult, it's like standing in front of huge fire. I stayed and staying all the times indoors during these times. I really admire people who work in the hot sun over here, they have adapted very well here.

I am just waiting to finish my project and go back to Bangalore where all seasons are pleasant and enjoyable.
