Q: Soaring temperatures in India have led officials to ban daytime cooking in some regions to prevent accidental fires. The heat wave across the country has killed over 300 this year, which has prompted the move against cooking between 9am and 6pm local time. 
  
 With temperatures rising to as high as 44C, which is 5C higher than normal for April, the intense heat wave has killed 79 people after accidental fires, intensified by dry and hot weather, swept through the villages. Of these, five adults and 10 children were killed in a fire sparked during a Hindu religious ceremony in the Aurangabad district of the eastern state of Bihar, The New Indian Express reports. 
  
 Bihar took the unprecedented step of forbidding cooking during the day in order to avoid such accidents in the future. People were instead asked to cook at night. Anyone who challenges the ban may face a jail term of up to a year. 
  
 "We call this the fire season in Bihar," a state disaster management official, Vyas has said. "Strong, westerly winds stoke fires which spread easily and cause great damage." 
  
 Severe drought conditions have also been reported in India, which has killed livestock, destroyed crops, and has left at least 330 million Indians without enough for their basic daily needs. 
  
 With a few more weeks to go for the monsoon rains, expected to start only in June, the situation has got so bad in some areas that the government had to send water tankers for emergency relief. 
  
 In some parts of western India, rivers and lakes have dried up too, with groundwater reservoirs measuring at just 22% capacity. 
  
 For two consecutive years, the southern parts of India have suffered from a deadly heat wave, which took the lives of 2,500 people in 2015. With temperatures hovering around 44C since the start of April, heat related illnesses have continued to increase. ||||| Image copyright Ranjeet Kumar Image caption The advisory came after reports that 67 people had died in the state in fire-related incidents in the past month 
  
 The disaster management authorities in the northern Indian state of Bihar have advised villagers to avoid cooking between 9am and 6pm to prevent outbreak of fires during the scorching summer. 
  
 People have been advised to also refrain from holding religious fire rituals or burning dry crops. 
  
 The advisory was issued on Monday on orders from the state chief minister. 
  
 It came after reports that 67 people had died in the state in fire-related incidents in the past month. 
  
 Several parts of India, including Bihar, are in the grip of a severe heat wave with temperatures crossing 40C. 
  
 "After a review of fire incidents, we've seen that most of them were caused by cooking fires. That's why we have issued an advisory to villagers that they must finish cooking before 9am and put out the fires when they finish," senior disaster management official Vyas, who uses only one name, told BBC Hindi's Manish Shandilya.

 The review found that some fires also started during Hindu religious rituals or while burning dry crops, he added. 
  
 In one particularly tragic incident, 13 people were killed in a fire which started during a religious ceremony in Aurangabad district. 
  
 Officials said if a fire broke out because of someone flouting the advisory, then those found guilty would be penalised under disaster management rules. 
  
 But correspondents say it is unclear how authorities will penalise a poor villager who has lost everything in a fire. |||||

Faced with deadly fires during a blistering weeks-long heatwave, one Indian state has made the "unprecedented" move of banning daytime cooking, the Guardian reports. "After a review of fire incidents, we've seen that most of them were caused by cooking fires," a senior disaster management official tells the BBC. Those fires have killed between 67 and 79 people over the past month. The new ban prohibits cooking between 9am and 6pm in the state of Bihar, punishable by up to a year in jail. It also forbids religious fire rituals and burning old crops. According to the International Business Times, 10 children were killed in a fire that started during a religious ceremony. Temperatures have risen above 111 degrees during the Indian heatwave, and the accompanying drought has left at least 333 million people without an adequate amount of water. More than 300 people have died from the heatwave this month, and monsoon rains aren't expected to bring relief until June.
