Flood-like situation in Andhra Pradesh

The Budameru Vagu river, often referred to as the 'Sorrow of Vijayawada,' has been overflowing due to heavy rainfall, causing a flood-like situation in various parts of the city. Aerial footage from Vijayawada shows several areas inundated with rainwater.

On Sunday, intense rainfall led to significant flooding in the Rama Krishna Puram area of Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, submerging homes and vehicles. Rescue and relief operations have been initiated by the police and NDRF teams, who have been relocating affected residents to rehabilitation centers.

 

IMD predicts more rainfall

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather alert for the next five days, predicting heavy rainfall along with thunderstorms and lightning.

For the coming four days, isolated areas in North Coastal Andhra Pradesh and Yanam are expected to experience thunderstorms with lightning.

Earlier on Saturday, a house in Mogalrajapuram collapsed due to a rock falling from a hill, resulting in the death of a woman. Two other women were hospitalised, and their condition was said to be stable. According to the officials, the house collapsed after a rock fell from the top of the hill amid heavy rainfall.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu held a review meeting on Saturday, instructing officials to remain vigilant and alert in rain-affected areas.
