BBC World Service - Business Daily, Tackling India's heatwaves

Soaring temperatures make work and life very difficult, what is being done to help?

Every year, India faces blistering heatwaves. In many parts of the country the temperatures are soaring, making it difficult for people to go about their daily lives. 

It’s the poor who are the most affected. They live in congested slums and have to step out in the heat to earn money. We explore what is being done, and what more could be done, to help them.
