Unable to extract a clean what is said in the video.

What's right

Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent, intense, and deadly in India [1].
In 2025, at least 2,760 lives were lost nationwide due to various extreme weather events [1][3][8].
The number of cyclonic disturbances formed over the North Indian Ocean in 2025 was higher than the annual average [8].

What's wrong

The claim that extreme weather events occurred on all but 10-20 days of the last year (implying nearly every day) is an exaggeration.
While extreme weather events were frequent in 2025, sources indicate specific numbers of days with events or fatalities, not that almost every single day was a tragedy [1][7][8].
The prediction of 2-3 extreme weather events occurring every day in the next 10-20 years is a projection not directly supported by the provided context, which focuses on current and past trends [2][5][6].

Breakdown

Frequency of Extreme Weather Events The claim that India experiences extreme weather events on almost every day of the year is an overstatement. While sources confirm a significant increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events in India, they do not support the assertion that nearly every single day was a tragedy in the past year [1][7][8].

For instance, one report states that in 2025, extreme weather events occurred on 331 out of 334 days, which is close to the claim but not exactly as stated [7]. Future Projections The prediction that 2-3 extreme weather events will occur daily in the next 10-20 years is a specific forecast that is not directly substantiated by the provided real-time web context.

The sources discuss current trends and past events, highlighting an increase in frequency and intensity, but do not offer such precise daily projections for the future [2][5][6]. Intensity and Impact However, the claim that the intensity of these events has increased is supported by the sources.

Reports indicate that extreme weather events are becoming more intense and deadly, with a significant number of fatalities recorded in 2025 due to various weather phenomena such as floods, lightning, heatwaves, and cyclones [1][3][8]. The number of cyclonic disturbances in 2025 was also noted to be higher than the average [8].
