What is the reason why more than ten people in India were killed by lightning?

According to Indian officials, lightning strikes are increasing because of rising temperatures.

You may not know that over the years, thousands of people in India have died because of lightning strikes, and they have been found dead by this innocent disaster. In the past 10 days alone, 147 people died due to lightning accidents. Officials also said that due to climate change, there may be more extreme weather in the future, which potentially means more deaths in India.

The lightning accident mainly occurred in Bihar, India, which is considered to be the poorest region in India. In the past three months, 265,438+05 people, including farmers and herders, were killed by lightning. Here, I really deeply doubt whether the life of the poor is life. Why are the poor most affected by natural disasters? Just because they don't have extra money to protect their own safety, doesn't the government pay attention to the safety of these people's lives? Knowing that many people are killed by lightning every year, why not take lightning protection measures in this area? Why not broadcast a forecast on TV in the weather that is more prone to lightning accidents to remind people to be vigilant?

As a result, after this incident, the official only traced the reason that the temperature change led to an increase in lightning strikes. In this way, the lives of these poor people in India have been forgotten. The Indian Meteorological Bureau issued a warning that there will be more lightning in the next two days, but such a reminder has no effect on those poor people who may die of lightning at any time.

Agricultural meteorologists in Bihar also said that lightning and thunder are caused by rising temperature and excessive air humidity. In order to solve this situation, a mobile phone application will be launched to predict the occurrence of lightning. However, this measure is doomed to be impracticable, and it won't play much role at all, because Bihar is a very poor area in India, and many poor farmers don't have smart phones at all, even if they do, they may just use them for making phone calls. They don't have basic education and culture, so they can use these smart phones, not to mention applications that predict lightning strikes. Therefore, this application launched by the government has implemented this measure, which is completely useless to people in dire straits.
