The cities of Warangal and Hanamkonda are witnessing exceptional rainfall, with water flowing like rivers through several colonies and inundating major areas. Since early morning, the heavy downpour has brought life to a near standstill, with residents afraid to step out of their homes.
In Warangal, key locations such as the bus stands, head post office centre, CKM Hospital area, JPN Road, Warangal Chowrasta, under-bridge area, and Battala Bazar Road have been submerged, with water on some main roads reaching knee-deep levels. The severe waterlogging has forced police to set up barricades and divert traffic around the flooded Warangal under-bridge. Railway authorities have also cancelled or halted several trains bound for Vijayawada, as floodwaters have reached the tracks in and around the city.The situation is particularly grave in Hanamkonda, which has recorded 20 to 25 cm of rainfall, with meteorologists warning it could rise to 30 to 35 cm, increasing the risk of flash floods. - 29 Oct 2025 10:05 PM IST
