Haryana
A landlocked agrarian state of 44,212 sq km between 200–1,200 m elevation, running an irrigation-intensive paddy-wheat economy alongside a fast-urbanising NCR belt. Declining groundwater, southern-district heat extremes and severe crop-residue burning shape exposure — Mewat (Nuh) is the most vulnerable district and Sirsa carries the highest climate risk.

About Haryana SAPCC
SAPCC Overview
Haryana SAPCC Phase-2 (2021–2030) updates Phase-1 against MoEFCC's revised framework, with technical support from GIZ and CTRAN Consulting. It groups 73 prioritised actions across seven vulnerable sectors aligned with eight NAPCC missions, organised under eight Working Groups (five adaptation, three mitigation), and aligns with India's NDCs and the SDGs. Total budget: ₹39,371.80 Cr over 10 years.
Climate profile
- Region-wide temperature rising 0.1–0.2°C/year (high confidence); maximum temperature 0.4–0.8°C/year, minimum 0.1–0.05°C/year.
- Annual rainfall shows significant decreasing trend in Ambala, Panchkula and Panipat; remaining districts decreasing with low confidence.
- Cold-spell events projected to decline up to 96% by mid-century under RCP 4.5; one-day maximum precipitation may decrease marginally (<1%).
Climate stress at a glance
- Mewat (Nuh) is the most vulnerable district; Sirsa carries the highest climate risk — 32% of districts high-risk, 63% moderate.
- Heavy reliance on canal-irrigated paddy-wheat farming has driven groundwater decline; agrarian yields face heat and shifting-monsoon risk.
- NCR-district urbanisation (Gurugram, Faridabad) compounds heat-island, water and waste-management challenges.
