I was trying to detect drought scenarios using remote sensing techniques. But I need to validate the results using the govt statistics. Any idea where I can get state/district wise reports or statistics for drought over Indian region?
You can go through GDOs (Global Drought Observatory) website for drought reports, or follow the link for drought reports for India: http://edo.jrc.ec.europa.eu/documents/news/GDODroughtNews201812_India.pdf
