Uttar Pradesh
Spans the Gangetic floodplains, dry Bundelkhand and a densely urban-industrial belt, with rainfall declining across nearly all districts (1980–2019) — Saharanpur, Shamli and Kaushambi are the only outliers — and 88% concentrated in the JJAS monsoon. District vulnerability hotspots span agriculture (Mahoba), water (Agra), forest (Mainpuri) and disaster (Balrampur), driving systemic adaptation stress.
