Heavy rain has battered parts of Maharashtra, including Mumbai and Nagpur. The Met Department has issued an Orange alert in Mumbai amid the downpour in the city, as reported by the news agency ANI. In Nagpur, several areas of the city are facing waterlogging following heavy overnight rainfall. Narendra Nagar Railway Under Bridge (RuB) and Airport entry road are closed due to waterlogging, ANI reported.
"There was heavy rainfall. There is waterlogging, and water even entered people's houses in some areas," said Gangadhar, a resident of Nagpur, as quoted by ANI. "This is a matter of concern. There was heavy rainfall yesterday," said another resident, Arvind. Meanwhile, in Telangana, sixty families in the Bhadradri-Kothagudem district have been shifted to relief camps, while low-lying areas were inundated at several places in the state as rains continued to lash on Wednesday.
DGP Anjani Kumar, who attended a meeting chaired by Chief Secretary A Santhi Kumari, said 60 families in two villages of the Charla area of Bhadradri Kothagudem district have been shifted to the camps, an official release said, as reported by PTI. In a video shared by ANI, water can be seen flowing over a part of the NH-163 bridge in Mulugu, due to incessant rainfall in the city. Low-lying areas were inundated at Warangal and other places in the state following the downpour.
Rivulets and other streams were in spate and this has caused damage to roads and disruption of road links between villages in some places.
