The inflows into Tungabhadra reservoir at Hospet in Karnataka increased tremendously on Saturday and stood at 1,20,411 cusecs at noon. The water level in the reservoir stood at 1,625.14 ft. against the full reservoir level of 1,633 ft. Against the full holding capacity of 100.855 tmcft, the level stood at 73.375 tmcft. This prompted the engineers to issue a flood warning to all the districts along the river course up to Srisailam dam as the gates might be lifted anytime after midnight.More Related News
