The MeT Director said that cold wave is anticipated in isolated areas on December 30 and 31.

“Tourists, travelers, and transporters are advised to exercise caution due to subfreezing temperatures, icy road conditions, and possible disruptions in both plains and higher reaches. Authorities recommend following administrative and traffic advisories during this period,” he said
