North-west
💡 Explanation:
The 'Loo' are strong, dusty, hot winds that blow from the west or northwest during the hot weather season in North India. These dry winds cause intense heat stress and can lead to heatstroke. They typically occur in May and June, affecting the Indo-Gangetic plains including Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh.
