Mulugu: District Collector Ila Tripathi has asked residents of the low-lying areas in, Kannaigudem, Wazeedu and Venkatapuram mandals to be vigilant and take precautions in the wake of incessant rains expected due to a low-pressure system.

The Collector along with the officials visited the Sammakka barrage (Tupakulagudem barrage) in Kannaiguem mandal and surveyed various streams in Wazeedu Mandal, as well as Primary Health Centers (PHCs) and flood-prone areas on Thursday. She advised officials to remain watchful over the next three to four days and be prepared for potential evacuations in low-lying regions if required. She also recommended the establishment of rehabilitation centres and instructed authorities to keep two National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams on standby at Eturnagaram. Speaking to the media, she said there was no immediate threat from the flood as the rainfall was coming down in the catchment areas, mainly at Sironcha in Maharashtra. She, however, asked the people to stay alert.
