        abstract = {Salmonella entericaserovar typhi is the cause of typhoid fever that remains one of the primary concerns of public health in most developing regions where the disease is spread by environmental and sanitation problems. The current research paper was conducted with the purpose to assess seasonal fluctuation and climatic factors affecting the occurrence of typhoid fever as well as its risk and clinical association. This is a cross-sectional study carried out in the laboratory during the period between July 2024 and June 2025 and involved 430 cases of clinically suspected typhoid fever. Blood sample was collected in the aseptic condition and subjected to numerous diagnostic tests, such as the Widal test, Typhidot test, Blood culture, and ELISA to enhance the accuracy of diagnosis. The seasonal distribution was determined by pooling cases based on climatic seasons (monsoon, post-monsoon, winter, etc.) to determine the variation in the occurrence of the disease. In 430 samples, 113 cases were found to be positive with Salmonella typhi. The analysis of cases were done on monthly basis from July 2024 to June 2025 which shows high occurance of cases in October 2024 with November 2024 and March 2025.The lowest number of cases were found in July 2024 and January 2025. Seasonal analysis revealed a greater incidence at monsoon, post-monsoon and late winter seasons. The identified seasonal peaks may indicate that climatic factors are closely connected with the transmission processes of the typhoid fever because, at those times, the water and food foundations are likely to be more contaminated The present research paper has shown a clear seasonality of typhoid fever occurrence and more prevalence throughout the monsoon and post monsoon months.},
