I thought the rest of the article was equally lousy.

Quoting Death Valley temperature as only “99F” to make a point that Delhi is really fricking hot at this time. Well, Death Valley currently isn’t at its peak temperature and the summer has barely begun. It’s also not experiencing a heat wave.

The whole article appears to be GPT’ed.

It was weird how they brought in a climate change quote from a normal Chennai resident. I would have expected an expert to be quoted on that. I have no idea whether she is right or wrong, this year has seen a lot of anomaly, including both the poles heating up by 30C at the same time[1], and the researchers just called it anomaly and did not blame it on climate change. Probably just that kind of year, although you can never be sure.
