CM asks Ministers, MLAs to camp in affected areas, monitor relief works; death toll in Kadapa 15
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Sunday directed the in-charge Ministers and MLAs of flood-affected Chittoor, Kadapa and Nellore districts to stay in the region and monitor rehabilitation and relief operations. The swelling Chitravathi, Papagni and Penna rivers continue to pose a threat at various places in the Rayalaseema region.
The road bridge across the Papaghni, connecting Kadapa and Tadipatri towns, collapsed on Sunday due to the impact of the floods. The district was severely battered by rain, especially the Kadapa, Rajampet and Kamalapuram constituencies.
