Hyderabad: A woman and her child died when a sidewall of their house collapsed on them at Padmanagar in Nalgonda and life was thrown out of gear at many places following heavy rains across the State on Friday.

Heavy to Very Heavy rain is likely to occur at isolated places in Kumaram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Jagityal, Karimnagar, Peddapally, Mulugu, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Khammam, Nalgonda, Suryapet, Mahabubabad, Sangareddy, Medak and Kamareddy districts.
Incessant rains have been lashing the State since early hours of Friday leaving several streets and low lying areas flooded in a few districts. Overflowing streams disrupted traffic flow at many places and affected coal production at SCCL opencast mines in Khammam and in Jayashankar Bhupalpally districts.
Traffic on the Koduru – Suryapet route was affected due to overflowing flood waters. The Panal bypass road in Nalgonda town was flooded with rain water, forcing motorists to take detours. Similarly, rains have been lashing parts of Wanaparthy, Narayanpet and Mahabubnagar districts.

Similarly, there were inflows into Singur, Manjeera, Sripada Yellampally and Tungabhadra projects.
Following the Met department’s heavy rains forecast, police and revenue officials appealed to the people to vacate dilapidated buildings and not to stay in low lying areas.
