Floodwaters Recede in Polavaram District; Relief Efforts Underway for Affected FamiliesPreviousNext

Floodwaters in the Sabari and Godavari rivers have receded in Polavaram district, restoring road access to 77 affected villages and enabling relief efforts. Over 10,000 families were impacted, with more than 1,000 houses submerged and nearly 750 families relocated to relief camps. The Andhra Pradesh government has distributed two months' ration to over 11,900 flood-affected families and continues medical support for pregnant women. Similar flood warnings were withdrawn in nearby Konaseema district, where relief operations are ongoing.
