Flood Warnings Issued as Godavari River Levels Rise in Telangana and Polavaram
The Godavari River crossed the first flood warning level of 43 feet at Bhadrachalam in Telangana, prompting authorities to activate flood control measures and alert residents in river-side and low-lying areas. Heavy inflows from upstream projects, including the Sripada Yellampalli Project releasing floodwaters, contribute to rising levels. In Polavaram district, flood alerts were issued along the Godavari and Sabari rivers due to continuous rainfall in neighboring states, with control rooms established and tourist sites closed as precautionary steps.
