Delhi is facing an extreme heatwave, with temperatures above 45 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). While people have been encouraged to stay indoors, not everyone has the option because they must work outside in the hot weather.?India is no stranger to scorching summer temperatures, but years of scientific research have revealed that climate change is causing heatwaves to become longer, more frequent, and more powerful.?
This year, there were also more western disturbances than usual between March and early May, allowing winds from neighbouring nations to blow unchecked and raising temperatures.
Taking note of this, Suchi Sharma from the NGO 'For A Cause Foundation' distributed packs of buttermilk to labourers and workers toiling in the scorching Delhi weather.
In the video, Sharma visits a building site in the national capital and politely asks workers if they want some buttermilk. She then kindly distributes sachets to the workers, providing them with a reprieve from the heat.?

The woman's act of compassion has pleased online users, who have thanked her and encouraged others to follow suit. One user stated, ''This isn't a reel, it's a gesture of humanity.''?
Another added, ''Forget about the money she spent but talk about the sacrifice she made by going out in that heat and accomplishing that.?
A third said, ''May God bless you, and others who cannot do the same, try just offering a glass of water to the delivery guy who comes to deliver, the bhaji wale bhaiya or didi who sells bhaji in your neighbourhood or comes to your doorstep, and try keeping a big flat bowl with water outside for animals to drink."?
