Hyderabad: Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan has commented on cloudburst on Tuesday. Earlier, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao said the floods in the state's Godavari region resulted from a cloudburst, a conspiracy planned by other countries.

KCR, who visited the flood-affected areas in Bhadrachalam, expressed suspicion that the Godavari floods was a cloudburst and that there were foreign conspiracies behind it. KCR's comments drew flak from the Opposition. The Opposition leaders condemned KCR's remarks by calling them ridiculous and immature.

It is not due to cloudburst, it is due to the overflowing of the Godavari river because of heavy rains in some of the adjacent states and inflows from upstream, said Tamilisai Soundararajan. She clarified that it could not be called a cloudburst.

Relations between the Governor and the Telangana government have not been good recently. After the floods, Governor Tamilisai responded quickly and went on a visit to the flood-affected areas. She visited flooded regions even though the government did not make arrangements per protocol.
