The Hindu
High alert sounded in areas along the river course in seven mandals
As the swollen Godavari inched closer to the danger mark of 53 feet after crossing the first and second flood warning levels of 43 feet and 48 feet at Bhadrachalam on Saturday, a high alert has been sounded in the areas all along the river course in seven mandals of the district. Swollen tributaries of the Godavari submerged various stretches of the roads in the Agency mandals snapping road links to several riverside villages in Bhadrachalam Agency. Vehicular movement between the border mandal of Charla and Mulugu district’s Venkatapuram was disrupted as Palemvagu stream inundated a portion of the main road on Saturday afternoon, sources said.More Related News
