Transport Disruptions and Emergency Response

The heavy rains have damaged crucial infrastructure, severing Hyderabad’s connectivity to surrounding areas. Roads turned into rivers, and several parts of the state remain inaccessible. The floods have claimed at least one life, with a man named Vinay tragically losing his life in the waters.

Authorities have launched extensive rescue efforts. The State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) has already rescued more than 500 people stranded by the surging waters. Local officials urge residents to avoid unnecessary travel and stay updated on weather warnings.

As Telangana continues to battle the aftermath, the government and emergency services remain on high alert to prevent further casualties and restore normalcy.
